Notes
Egg Substitute in Cookies
There may be so many egg substitute when making eggless cakes like apple sauce, mashed bananas, sweetened condensed milk, yogurt, milk, vinegar. But the option for cookies is very less. So far in my experience I have found 2 egg alternatives in cookies
Flax Egg - for every 1 egg you can use 1 tbsp flax seed powder mixed with 3 tbsp of warm water.
Yogurt - Use 1.5 tbsp of thick plain yogurt instead of 1 egg in this recipe.
Chewy Cookies
Use thick yogurt and addition of brown sugar will make your cookies chewier. So never skip on the brown sugar.
Storage & Freezing
Making and baking cookies can be easy but storing them the correct way keeps your cookies chewy longer.
Never over bake your cookies. Cookies may look soft when you remove them from oven. But it hardens and sets once it cools.
Baked cookies can be stored in an air tight container with a small piece of bread or marshmallow to preserve the chewiness in cookies.
