These eggless chocolate chip cookies are life changing! With soft, chewy centers and lightly golden, crispy edges, you'll never need another cookie recipe. The secret to these perfect dark chocolate chip cookies is not using eggs!
Why You'll Love These Soft & Chewy Cookies:
Remember the giant chocolate chip cookies you would get for $1 in elementary through high school? That's honestly what this recipe reminds me of. I call these "school cookies" because they're extra soft and even make great under-baked cookies if that's your thing.
I promise you're going to fall in love with these cookies. They are soft and they stay soft days after being baked. Just trust me on this one guys and make these cookies asap! 😍
Plus, these easy cookies would make great ice cream cookie sandwiches! Be sure to save this recipe on Pinterest so you can come back to it when you're ready to make some fancy shmancy ice cream sammys for your next birthday bash.
Chocolate Chip Cookies Without Eggs!
I know it may sound weird, but this chocolate chip cookie recipe without eggs is seriously THE BEST I've ever made!! Like where have these cookies been my entire life?! I am a soft cookie person. Get out of here crispy, stale cookies! ✌️
Instead of adding eggs, you add WATER. Am I sounding even crazier? Haha. This recipe can easily become vegan if you swap the butter for vegan stick butter. You're welcome!
How To Make This Eggless Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe:
Before you get starting, soften your butter in the microwave for a few seconds or allow it to rest on the counter. Beat the softened butter and sugars together for several minutes until light and fluffy. Scrape down the sides a few times and keep beating until the butter and sugar mixture has lightened in color.
Next, add in the room temperature water and vanilla extract. Beat on low-medium at first and then increase the speed to medium-high. When you add the water, the mixture will look curdled or separated. After a few more minutes of beating, the butter and sugars will come back together to form a light and creamy mixture again.
Now it's time to add the dry ingredients. Spoon and level the flour to get a more accurate measurement and add to the mixing bowl. Next add the baking soda, baking powder and salt. Use the measuring spoon to gently stir the rising agents into the flour before turning on your mixer.
Mix the dry and wet ingredients together on medium speed until just combined. Your cookie dough should look sticky and start to form a large dough ball around the beater.
Lastly, fold in the chocolate chips. Use a cookie scoop or a large spoon to scoop the dough and roll into about 2'" balls. Place cookie dough balls onto a parchment lined baking sheet and bake at 350 for 12-15 minutes.
Baking Tips:
Bake for about 12 minutes for a slightly under-baked cookie and bake for about 15 minutes for a more baked cookie. Baking times will vary from oven to oven, so keep an eye on your cookies and take them out when they look good to you!
Remove the eggless chocolate chip cookies from the oven when they are lightly golden brown. These cookies without eggs will look slightly puffy with under-baked middles when first removed from the oven, however they will flatten out and continue to bake as they rest. Allow cookies to cool before eating.

eggless chocolate chip cookies
These eggless chocolate chip cookies are life changing! With soft, chewy centers and lightly golden, crispy edges, you'll never need another cookie recipe. The secret to these perfect dark chocolate chip cookies is not using eggs!
- Prep Time: 10
- Cook Time: 12-15
- Total Time: 25
- Yield: 12 1x
- Category: Dessert
- Method: Bake
- Cuisine: American
Ingredients
- ½ cup salted butter, softened
- ¼ cup white sugar
- ¾ cup brown sugar, lightly packed
- ¼ cup water, room temperature
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 ¾ cup all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
- ¾ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips (I use ½ cup dark and ½ cup semi-sweet)
Instructions
- Cream together softened butter and sugars for several minutes until light and fluffy, scraping down the sides.
- Gradually add in water and vanilla extract and beat to combine. (The water will cause the mixture to appear curdled. Turn your mixer on medium-high and beat for a few more minutes to bring the ingredients back together.)
- To a mixing bowl, add dry ingredients including flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
- Stir in the chocolate chips and chill the cookie dough in the fridge for 30 minutes or more.
- Use a cookie scoop or spoon to portion out the dough to 2" balls. Place on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake on the center rack at 350F until the edges are golden brown, for about 12 minutes. The cookie centers will look puffy and under-baked, but trust the process!
- Let the cookies cool to set. They will flatten out and continue cooking after they're removed from the oven. Wait until the cookies are set, 5 minutes or so, before transferring so they don't fall apart.
Notes
To make this recipe vegan, swap butter for vegan stick butter.
Chilling the cookie dough creates a chewier texture. I recommend at least 20-30 minutes, but you can also store the dough in the fridge for a few days and bake off a few cookies at a time as well!
I typically bake 4-6 cookies at a time so there is enough room for them to spread out.
For an under-baked cookie, bake 10-12 minutes. For a crispier cookie, bake 12-15 minutes.
Baking times and how your cookies will spread may vary depending on your oven!
Amy
These chocolate chip cookies were so soft and chewy! Definitely going to make these again!
Chelsey
Loved these cookies so much and will be making them on a regular basis from now on. They were so soft! Also, egg free dough = almost guilt free cookie dough snacking!
Marley
Thanks for sharing your thoughts Chelsey! I appreciate your support and I am so happy that you enjoyed these eggless chocolate chip cookies. Edible cookie dough is pretty irresistible!! Thank you!
Steve P
It’s actually the flour that makes cookie dough unsafe, not just the eggs.
Marley Braunlich
You're right Steve! Good reminder to always heat-treat your flour when making edible cookie dough 🙂
Grant Hunnicutt
These are some of the best chocolate chip cookies I have ever made. I suggest using mini chocolate chips though, since it makes them look and taste better. Also, add in the dry ingredients in increments to prevent any clumping.
Marley
Hey Grant! I'm stoked that you loved these chocolate chip cookies and they were the best you've ever made!! Thank you for leaving a comment and for sharing those tips. Mini chips do look great. Thanks again! 🙂
Jo
Hi i substituted the butter for dairy free butter but my cookies didn’t spread out very much they look nothing like your photos. Are you meant to keep in balls or flatten out a bit? They tasted good.
Marley Braunlich
Hey Jo, thanks for leaving your notes! Now that you've made the recipe with dairy free butter and want flatter cookies, you could try flattening your dough balls a bit before baking to help encourage this process. Otherwise, you can try tweaking the ingredient amounts and see if you find that a little less flour or even melted butter instead of softened butter helps them spread out more. Good luck!
Jaya
We felt like cookies but didn’t have eggs and tried this recipe and it’s truly amazing and we like it better than our traditional chocolate chip cookie recipe. We had only unsalted butter so added a pinch more salt and only had baking soda so used one tsp to cover the absent baking powder but it turned out perfect. Thanks again!
Marley
Hey Jaya, I'm so glad you guys enjoyed these chocolate chip cookies. I get addicted to this specific recipe and come back to it time and time again. Thanks for leaving a review! 🙂
Jenna
These were fantastic! My daughter is allergic to eggs and she loved them!
Marley
Awh! I'm so happy you guys were able to enjoy some chocolate chip cookies that were allergen-friendly. Thank you for leaving a review. Cheers!
Lynne
I never thought I would stray from my tried and true chocolate chip cookie recipe that I normally use, but when I was craving them and didn’t have eggs I found your recipe to try instead. They are so good, I think I will just start using this recipe from now on!
Marley
Hey Lynne, this recipe is definitely one to hold on to for when you're out of eggs! It happens to me more often than you'd think with all of the baking I do. So glad you liked these cookies. Thanks for leaving a review. 🙂
Lindsey
Amazing! So good! I did 50/50 brown and granulated sugar and increased salt by 1/4 teaspoon as I used unsalted butter. I only had semi sweet chocolate chips and thought these turned out great! I did 6 per sheet and had no issues with spreading into each other.
THANK YOU!
Marley
Hey Lindsey, I'm so glad you loved these cookies!! Thank you for the 5 star review 🙂 You rock!
Tejal
Made them today. I would cut down the sugar content to 1/2 cup of brown sugar. It gets really sweet with chocolate chips. My cookies turned out delicious with milk.
Marley
Hey Tejal, thanks for making my recipe! These are definitely indulgent cookies. I like to use dark chocolate chips to cut that sweetness a bit. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
Tejal
Excellent recipe. Made it and turned out great!
Laura
I’m trying these for the first time tonight! I’ve had eggless chocolate chips from a bakery that makes them and theirs are amazing! Fingers Crossed!!!! They are chilling right now.
Lindsey H.
I can't speak highly enough of this recipe! It is the best chocolate chip cookie recipe I have! THANK YOU! I have made these with chocolate chunks and chocolate chips and they are great. Last time I made them I did half chocolate chunks and half broken up Oreos for a cookies and cream chocolate chip cookie-so good!
Alicia
Excited to try! 4 tsp of vanilla seems like a lot! is that right when I double??
Marley
Hey Alicia! I find that more vanilla elevates the flavor of these cookies. If you'd like to use less, you can! Thanks for making my cookie recipe. Hope you love them 🙂
Grace M.
The cookie had a nice crunchy outside and a soft pillowy inside. This was great for right now due to the price of eggs soaring, great recipe!
Barbie
As a diehard chewy chocolate chip cookie lover, I was a little skeptical of eggless cookies but the price of eggs led me to try these. Holy moly are they good! I like them better on day 2 than fresh baked and I doubt there will be any by day 3 for another variance. I'm keeping and sharing this recipe! (Note, I made these with a size 50 cookie scoop and yielded about 24 cookies. I forgot to count.)
Neha Mahajan
Hello, Thanks for this recipe. When you say 2 inches dough ball, how much is that in Tbsp or may be even in oz, so I can weigh them? My cookie scoops are in Tbsp. Wondering which one will be closest to 2 inches.
Marley
Hey Neha, Thank you for your question! I have not weighed the cookie dough balls before, but 2 or 3 tablespoons should be a nice size. Typically, my dough balls fit nicely in the center of my palm, maybe the size of a cutie (Clementine mandarin) or a touch smaller haha. You can definitely adjust the size to your liking if you want smaller cookies or larger ones. Good luck and enjoy!!
Kindrick Kent
I used this recipe because I was in the mood to bake and didn’t have any eggs. This is now my go-to recipe even if I have eggs. I doubled the recipe and added in a 2 full-size Hershey’s chopped, 1 cup of dark chocolate morsels and some milk chocolate/Heath bits. I also used a giant scoop to make monster sized cookies and doubling the recipe I got about 14 monster sized cookies. I had to bake them about 19 minutes due to their size, but these are perfectly crisp on the outside with the chewy soft middle and even my husband was blown away. Can’t wait to make these with different add-ins!
Marley
Hi Kindrick! Thank you for leaving a review 🙂 I'm so glad to hear you and your husband loved these cookies! Thank you for sharing how you customized the recipe to your liking with different mix-ins. Cheers!

This is a 10 out of 10 recipe this is so nice
Jennifer Brunette-Rubenstein
Dr
Suja
I made this cookie and it was out of the world. My kids said, these cookies looks exactly like store bought but better than store bought . Thanks for the wonderful recipe
Marley
Hey Suja! Thank you for making my eggless cookie recipe and for leaving this awesome review. I'm so happy your kids loved these egg-free cookies! They are also a hit in our household 🙂
Katherine
Thanks for posting a solid eggless cookie recipe! Really enjoyed making these with my young son and not worrying about salmonella.
As for the results, I think my expectations were too high after reading some of the other reviews.
For folks who came here because they're out of eggs but are used to eating eggful cookies, I will say that though they are a nice texture, the taste was woefully missing something. So go in not expecting too much, and be less disappointed than I!
Megan
These is the best chocolate chip cookie recipe I've ever made!! They turned out just like you described, crispy edges and chewy, gooey centers. I like my cookies soft and a little bit under baked and I found 10-12 minutes was perfect in my oven. I also tried the pan banging technique you mentioned. This was the first time I had heard of this and I think it really helped flatten out the cookies. I used semi sweet chocolate because that's all that I had, but next time I'm going to try dark chocolate. SO good! Thank you!
Krysta Wolfangel
My hens stopped laying over the winter, so I was out of eggs for months. I tried this recipe thinking yeah right this will never work. But guess what! It is totally wonderful and the texture and flavor is exactly like cookies made with eggs! The recipe has made it into my recipe book under the title: Hens on Strike Chocolate Chip Cookies...haha
Marley Braunlich
Hey Krysta! I'm sorry to hear about your hens and wish for some fruitful months ahead for you! I am so glad you found this eggless cookie recipe and loved the texture and flavor of these cookies. I love the title you gave this recipe in your recipe book haha! That's amazing! Thank you for the 5-star review. 🙂
D
Ooooh these were so good! Thank you for the recipe!
Marley Braunlich
I'm glad you loved them!! 🙂
Evan
My new go to for chocolate chip cookies! These are way better than your average chocolate chip cookie. I love soft cookies and these hit the spot. Easy go to for when my cookie craving hits!
Marley Braunlich
Hey Evan! I am so happy you enjoyed these delicious chocolate chip cookies without eggs. They are super soft and we love them too! Thanks for the 5 star review.
Candace
These are truly the best homemade chocolate chip cookies! The only thing I wish is that they were a tad bit thicker, however, they are perfect how they are, that's just my preference.
Marley Braunlich
Hey Candace, thanks for leaving a 5 star review for these eggless chocolate chip cookies! Sometimes chilling the dough or adding a tablespoon or two of flour can create a thicker cookie. I haven't tried adding more flour to this recipe but let me know if you make any adjustments and how they turn out! Thanks again for enjoying this recipe.
Joann
Just made these, I really cannot taste the difference without the egg. They were excellent! My daughter and husband have egg allergy so this is awesome.
Marley Braunlich
Hey Joann, thank you for this awesome review! I am so happy you and your family enjoyed these chocolate chip cookies. It is truly amazing how delicious these cookies are even without any eggs! Enjoy!
Stacey Robertson
These really are the best cookies! I’d been subbing Aquafaba for eggs in traditional cookie recipes as my boyfriend has an egg intolerance. Decided to search for eggless recipes, and could NOT believe how amazing these are! I make them in mini muffin tins and get about 30 bite-sized cookies. Just wanted to correct a few weights on the metric recipe:
1 cup chocolate chips = 170g (not 224!)
1/4 cup white sugar = 25g (not 50!)
3/4 cup lightly packed brown sugar = 160g (not 150g)
1 3/4 cup flour = 210g (not 219)
Though the recipe is still amazing with the wrong conversions! Did it that way the first time. 🙂
Marley Braunlich
Hey Stacey! Thanks for leaving a 5-star review 🙂 I love that you made eggless cookie bites by using a mini muffin tin! What a cool idea, I'll definitely have to try this.
Thanks for sharing the metric weights you used when baking. My recipe card plugin automatically converts the US customary amounts I enter to metric units on its own so those numbers might not match up perfectly. Thank you!!
Matt
This recipe is absolutely amazing! These cookies turned out so good and delicious, everyone loved them. We cannot wait to make these again!
Marley Braunlich
Thanks Matt! So glad you enjoyed these cookies. They are our favorite at home too. Enjoy!
Brenda M Fain
I made these cookies today 5-21-23 and I really like these cookies. I followed the recipe to the letters and numbers and I must say the cookies deserve 5 stars. The chef really researched the recipe; probably tested it numerous times, and landed on this delicious batch of cookies. The only thing I did differently was use table salt instead of what I usually use is sea salt and I am glad I did. They needed the extra salt. I love this recipe. TFS
Marley Braunlich
Hi Brenda! Thank you for leaving a review and rating this cookie recipe 5 stars!! I appreciate your kind words. I did test this recipe many times before sharing it on my blog and it is still one of my most favorite recipes. I'm glad the salt balanced out the sweetness for you. I like my cookies sweet and salty too! Enjoy 🙂
Brenda M Fain
Hi Marley,
I am glad you replied because I made these cookies again and used browned butter. Take it from me if your readers want to try browning the butter, and tell them not to waste their time. It did nothing for the flavor and it left the cookies dry and crumbly. Thank you for caring enough to share your recipes. God bless.
Mary Ann
These cookies were amazing. I don’t know the science behind them, basically subbing water for eggs, but it works beautifully. Whether you are a vegan, ran out of eggs or just want to try a great cookie recipe, this one is it! Thanks so much!!
Marley Braunlich
Hey Mary Ann, I'm so glad you loved my eggless chocolate chip cookies! Eggs are made up of about 75% water which is why this substitution works in this recipe! Thank you for leaving a 5 star review! Enjoy 🙂
John
This was amazing
Marley Braunlich
Thanks John! So glad you enjoyed these cookies without eggs. 🙂
Pat Dickson
Love this recipe. I make these cookies often for my grandchildren. One precious granddaughter is allergic to eggs, so they are a real treat! Will they turn out the same if I double the recipe?
Marley Braunlich
Hey Pat, thanks for coming back to leave a 5 star review for these eggless cookies with chocolate chips! I am so glad you and your grandkids can enjoy these cookies together.
I have made this recipe manyyy times over the years, but I cannot remember exactly if I have doubled it before! I might have once. I think it should be fine if you double the recipe. However, I would just keep an eye on all of your measurements to make sure you've got everything measured out correctly! I use the spoon and level method when measuring flour and get eye level with the glass measuring cup for the water so I can ensure it is just the right amount. Good luck!
Pat Dickson
Forgot rating in my comment.
Linda
Great flavor! Mine came out fluffy, similar to a cake texture. But I think it's something I did. Will definitely be trying again.
Marley Braunlich
Hey Linda, Thanks for trying out recipe! I recommend stirring and fluffing up your flour before scooping, and using the scoop and level method when measuring your flour so you get more accurate measurements. I've made this recipe dozens of times and have used a few different ovens, sometimes the oven will impact the bake of the cookies. If you want a denser, chewier cookie, you can try the "pan banging" technique or flatten the cookies with the bottom of a spoon or measuring cup a bit when they are almost done baking. You could also experiment with removing the baking soda or baking powder if you find your cookies are still rising too much. Good luck!
Margot
These are my favorite chocolate chip cookies ever! My dad asks me to make these for him whenever I come to visit. Thank you!!
Marley Braunlich
Hey Margot, thanks for the 5 star review. I'm so glad you and your dad enjoy these cookies together. So sweet!
Cat H
Haven’t made these in a while and decided to give them another try tonight for the family, super easy and delicious!
Linda
I am dairy and egg intolerant. This recipe is FANTASTIC!!!
Mixed everything by hand using wooden spoon and whisk.
Trusted " the process" and was not disappointed.
Deserves more than five stars!
Joelle
Perfect for a rainy day! I felt like making cookies but didn't have any eggs, and here in Austria the shops are closed on Sundays. Found this recipe and went for it. Wow! These cookies turned out really great! Delicious, chewy but slight crunchy around the outside and the eggs aren't missing at all. Clear recipe and also awesome you have the conversion mode for metric grams!
Marley Braunlich
Hey Joelle! So cool that someone from Austria found my recipe <3. I am so glad you gave it a go and really enjoyed the outcome. Thanks for leaving a review!!
Ginger
These were delicious and held together well! I was a bit hasty and skipped the refrigeration part, but they still baked beautifully!
Marley Braunlich
Hi Ginger! Thanks for leaving a 5 star rating and review. I appreciate it!! Happy you enjoyed these chocolate chip cookies.
br
Can I make this with oil instead of butter?
Marley Braunlich
Hey there, I have not tested this recipe with oil so I cannot speak to how they would turn out. Oil will change the recipe for sure. I have had another person leave a review saying they used coconut oil instead of butter to make these cookies vegan and that they turned out wonderful. Perhaps you could try that! I don't believe they melted the coconut oil, but instead left it in its sold form. Not positive on that though. Good luck!
Nivi
Love the cookies! They were really comforting and easy to bake 🙂
Marley Braunlich
Hey Nivi! I am so happy to hear that you enjoyed these eggless cookies! I'm glad they were easy and delicious. Enjoy!
Rebecca
I made these cookies and I love them. I have to admit I kept sneaking small pieces of the batter out of the refrigerator while it was chilling. I baked them and used a small melon ball scoop to make each cookie. I was able to bake about 24. They are just the right size for me for a small snack when I want something sweet and cheewy.
Marley Braunlich
Hey Rebecca, thanks so much for making this recipe and leaving a thoughtful review! I appreciate you sharing some insights here with other bakers. I am so glad you enjoyed this cookie recipe!
Ginger
Easy and delicious! I subbed coconut sugar for brown sugar and they still tasted great!
Marley Braunlich
Hi Ginger! Thanks for leaving a 5 star review and making this recipe. I love baking with coconut sugar from time to time and I'm glad these cookies turned out great with this swap. Enjoy!
Rosa Collazo
Just made these because my 13-year-old son wanted some chocolate chip cooking but, I ran out of eggs. My whole home says these are the best cookies ever. My son prefers these. Now I'm saving eggs! Thank you for the recipe. They are so chewy and delicious! This is the chocolate chip cookie recipe I will use all the time <3
Marley Braunlich
Hi Rosa! This is so sweet! I'm so happy you and your son could enjoy some chewy chocolate chip cookies without eggs. Thanks for leaving a review!!
Sarah
These are the best chocolate chip cookies. I make them for pretty much every event or party I have and they're always a big hit! Bonus that they don't have eggs, it makes it easier and they taste awesome.
Nina L.
I was not expecting these to turn out as good as they did! Super soft and gooey. I ran was a little short on brown sugar so I added a little more white sugar. So so good! And I did not wait for them to cool off, I dove right into them! 😆
Marley Braunlich
Hey Nina, so glad you loved these and that they worked out with a little more white sugar instead of brown. This is one of my all time favorite cookie recipes! 🙂 Enjoy!!
Alex
These cookies are in the oven, I read about half the recipe and mixed everything together really fast. I didn't see until now to refrigerate before cooking. Also I didn't use a power mixer and I rushed faster then anyone should do anything. I also didn't make nice balls and just used a spoon to keep my hands clean so the dough was in rough clumps. If they don't turn out as you can tell its not your fault. BUT I bet they do! I will keep you posted!
Thanks
Alex
At this point there is 2 minutes left and they look fairly huge and kinda lumpy :-/
Fingers crossed!
Marley Braunlich
Hey Alex, thanks for trying out this recipe! I have only made the dough with a power mixer as it incorporates the ingredients really well. So mixing by hand could have contributed to the lumpiness. One of my favorite tricks for flatter cookies is the "pan banging" method - this is when you tap your cookie sheet onto a tea towel or soft hot pad to flatten out the freshly baked cookies. Hope you still enjoyed the recipe and give it another go in the future. Thanks!
Alex
They turned out awesome despite my speedy ways! They have all been consumed and now I will make a second batch! Thanks!
Marley Braunlich
Woooo! Great to hear it. Thanks Alex!
Mo
Now Ive had a lot of good cookies in my day, but these were to DIE FOR!!! The way they were literally still soft and chewy the next day 😋
Marley Braunlich
Yayayayay! So glad you loved these cookies Mo!
Sara
Better than Toll House. So chewy and moist, and the added bonus of being egg free.
Marley Braunlich
WOW! This is a huge compliment Sara! Thanks so much for making this recipe and leaving a 5 star review. Cheers! 🙂
Gale
These turned out perfect. I made 2 dozen regular sized cookies. Other than the size I followed the directions exactly. No need for eggs as these are yummy without.

Tennison
These are wonderful! Thank you for sharing? Is it possible I make this recipe into a cookie cake? Thank you!
Marley Braunlich
Hey Tennison, So glad you love this cookie recipe! I have not tried making this recipe into a cookie cake so I'm not quite sure how it would bake or turn out. If you try this, let me know how it goes. Thanks! I'll make a note to create an eggless cookie cake in the future. Cheers!

can I replace the water with milk?
Marley Braunlich
Good question, Lilly! I have not tried using milk instead of water. I don't see why it would not work. If you try it, let me know how it goes!
Aarthi
These were the best cookies I have ever made!! I want to say that these cookies turned about cakey rather than the cookies in the picture but they were delicious!
Marley Braunlich
So glad you enjoyed this egg free cookie recipe!
Dixie
Made this for a friend whose kids have egg and milk allergies. These turned out great! A tad bit sweet for me but the kids are not complaining!

Miriam
I tried these once because I was out of eggs and now they're my staple cookie recipe! I've tried so many recipes on the internet but some were too sugary, some kept spreading too much no matter how much i chilled them, some were too thin, but this is the perfect one for me! I had to come back and leave a review since i've done them thrice already
Marley Braunlich
Wooo! Thanks Miriam 🙂 I am so glad you love this recipe and have made it 3 times already! Enjoy 🙂

Delicious! I swapped 1/4 cup water for 1/4 cup coconut oil just to try it out since I use coconut oil when baking to give moisture. Turned out great!
I also used these exact same measurements/ingredients but negated chocolate chips, added 1 tsp cinnamon and cinnamon sugar on the outside to make snicker doodles! Definitely using this recipe again when I’m all out of eggs!
Krystal Bohaker
My son has an egg allergy and his diet restricts a lot of things. These cookies were wonderful! Just what we needed. Came out great! thank you so much for sharing this recipe;)
Allison Napier
These are AMAZING! I went to make cookies and realized I didn't have any eggs and stumbled upon this recipe. You would never know there's no eggs in these cookies! I substituted the chocolate chips for mini m&ms, so yummy! Thank you for this recipe- will be adding to my recipe book
Marley Braunlich
Woooo! Love the mini m&ms idea. Thank you for this raving review, Allison. Enjoy 🙂
Chadel
I was a bit skeptical but this recipe blew me away. I couldn't believe that it all came together. It was true, crisp on the outside and chewy in the middle cookie. My 13yr old daughter who has a egg allergy gave me a high five which ment a lot. Thank you for sharing. This recipe is a keeper.
Marley Braunlich
This review warms my heart Chadel! So sweet. Thank you and enjoy!
DJMC
I made exactly as written just with a 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts. This recipe is great! The cookies were soft and gooey on the inside but had the perfect crisp edges. Thank you!
Trish McLaughlin
I have a friend who cannot eat eggs so I was looking for some kind of dessert to make for her. These cookies came out really well. They are easy to make and delicious!
Shelley
Made this recipe because I realized I had no eggs and promised the kiddos we'd make cookies and found this recipe! No regrets and will make these always! I actually prefer this recipe to the standard one with eggs! (Plus its cheaper to make without them, ha!) Very surprised these were SO amazing!
Gloria
We have been trying to change up our diet a bit to cut out so many animal products, and be a little healthier. But even healthy people need a nice, warm from the oven cookie sometimes. This recipe hit the spot. I love eggless cookies. Still soft, and chewy (even when room temp the next day). Appreciate that people like you do all the math of the recipe and share online for all of us. I look forward to trying some more of your recipes. Ever think of putting out an eggless dessert book? You should! 😊
Angela Camacho
Very good, glad I found the recipe. I was out of eggs.
Danika
These were so good!!!
Niki Shah
Should I use light brown sugar or dark?
Marley Braunlich
Hey Niki, either brown sugar should work just fine. I tend to have light brown sugar more often than dark so that's what I usually use in this recipe!
Annie
Glad to have found a simple eggless recipe that didn’t call for a bunch of weird substitute ingredients. Easy recipe that came out great and satisfied my craving for soft cookies, though they took a little longer than 12 minutes to bake.
I had all the ingredients but didn’t follow the instructions quite exactly: I don’t have a stand mixer so mixed by hand. I didn’t have any parchment paper so used a non-stick cookie sheet with cooking spray. I forgot to chill the dough but still had some left over so chilled that for a second batch later. After 12 minutes in the oven they had barely started to flatten and weren’t golden brown so I baked them for another 5 minutes, then turned off the oven and let them sit in there for another 5, then resting for a final 5. They didn’t flatten much more so they were some chunky bois but still turned out delicious! Chewy with a slight crunch!
Marley Braunlich
Thanks Annie! I'm glad you enjoyed these cookies and found good work-arounds so the recipe method fit your needs. One tip for flatter cookies is the "pan banging" method, where you tap the cookie sheet on a flat surface with a pot holder several times before returning the cookies to the oven for a few more minutes to finish baking. Bake times can definitely vary for different oven types and altitudes. I prefer an underdone cookie, so glad adding those extra minutes worked well for ya! Enjoy 🙂
Michelle
Very handy now that eggs are so expensive. 🥹 thank you! Maybe bake a little longer if you don’t want them too gooey in the middle.
Marley Braunlich
Thanks for the 5 star review Michelle! Enjoy 🙂
Marley Braunlich
Thanks Michelle! 🙂 Enjoy!!
Randall Humiston
Made it and they were delicious. Unfortunately they didn’t flatten out a bit. Could be because I used too many chocolate chips. Or maybe it was because I had an almost three year old granddaughter helping me. I can’t guarantee that the ingredients were measured exactly. But the experience was well worth it. Santa is gonna love them!
Marley Braunlich
Thanks so much Randall. I'm glad you had fun making these cookies with your granddaughter! Next time, you could try flattening out your dough balls a bit before baking and/or banging the pan on a flat surface a few times at the end of baking to help them get a bit more flat. 🙂
Laura
Have you tried freezing the dough and baking from frozen? Was hoping to make a big batch and just bake a couple here and there.
Marley Braunlich
Hey Laura, Yes! I have frozen this dough and it works out great. I would suggest letting the frozen cookie dough balls sit on the baking sheet for 5 minutes or so to thaw slightly before baking. I have some helpful tips in this post too: https://bakedabundance.com/how-to-freeze-cookie-dough-and-bake-from-frozen/
Laura
Awesome, thank you! These were delicious and I can’t wait to have some easily on hand!
Amanda
Just used this recipe and it was a hit!
Marley Braunlich
Woooo! I always love to hear it. Thanks Amanda 🙂
Evylyn Burns
So it's December 2024 and I found this recipe due to the high cost of eggs and thought Ill try it. Well let me tell you, I over the years have been a cook and never have I made eggless cookies but these were just awesome. I did add one thing extra, peanut butter. Three heaping tablespoons. I will definitely make them often.
Marley Braunlich
Yum!! Sounds delish. Enjoy Evylyn!
Sadie
My littlest is dairy, egg, and soy free due to allergies and this is my go to recipe! I use coconut oil for the butter and allergen free chocolate chips. They’re a bit heavy from the oil but that’s to be expected! I have this recipe pinned in my browser so it’s easily accessible haha.
Marley Braunlich
Supermom Sadie! I'm glad you found a recipe that works for your littles. A few other bakers swap the butter for coconut oil too. Glad this works well for you! Thank you for your support 🙂
Caitlin Rodgers
These cookies came out amazing! I am tempted to try them again with 50% AP flour and 50% buckwheat flour.
Marley Braunlich
Ooo I'm intrigued! Sounds good Caitlin 🙂
Megan
Delicious cookies
Megan
My favorite cookie recipe.
Donna
This is the best eggless chocolate chip recipe I have ever tried and I tried a lot of them. It's also healthy. I used spelt and barley flours and a 1/4 c butter and 1/4 cup Avocado oil and they still turned out good.
This is definitely a keeper. The Banana Bread was also good minus the egg.
Gigi
SOOOOO GOOD! loved this recipe! My brother has an egg allergy and I have tried so many different recipes but never tasted good before.
Mimi
Sooo good, best one ive tried!
Ryan
For all my stoners reading this, make sure to double check how much cannabutter you have after cooking it off. Remember a lot of it will evaporate so you may need to top up.
These were delicious and my little addition sent me to the moon 🙂
Sarah
These are SOOO good and super easy to make. Definitely a new staple.
Janet
Baked these with my Girl Guides (one of whom has an egg allergy) they they turned out perfectly.
Lemo
This was amazzzing. What I like about this recipe is that 1 with the lack of stock of eggs you can still make great chocolate chips cookies and also make it for those who don’t like eggs in baked goods
This maintains great level of moisture I slightly overcooked them they were brown but still were amazing.
My new go to for sure.
Marley Braunlich
So happy you loved these! Definitely a great recipe to have in your back pocket when the price of eggs goes up or you can't find any eggs in stock at the local store. Or for egg allergies! Enjoy 🙂
Melody
I have been trying different egg free chocolate chip cookie recipes for the past 12 years (my son has an egg allergy) and this recipe is the winner! These actually have the shape and consistency of a cookie not to mention they taste delicious!
Marley Braunlich
Wow! This is a huge compliment! Thanks Melody. Enjoy 🙂
Mykl
You need look no further for the BEST CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE RECIPE EVER because you’ve found it! I’ve made this recipe countless times and always keep a batch of dough in the fridge for a super quick treat. Do yourself a huge favor and convert the recipe into Metric and weigh your ingredients. It makes all the difference in the world in your finished product. I find a 30g dough ball to be the sweet spot even though a 2 inch ball converts to 20 g . Also, work fast when rolling into balls because the recipe is basically sugar and butter and warm hands make it soft and melty. Thank you for the recipe!
Marley Braunlich
Thanks so much for all of the love on this recipe!! <3
Elise
These are so delicious! New favorite recipe!
Marley Braunlich
Yay!! Thanks Elise 🙂
Lindsey
YUM! We were out of eggs and eggs wanted cookies so I searched for an egg free recipe. LOVE that you do not have to use applesauce or banana as a replacement, and that they just taste like a good ol chocolate chip cookie. I used gluten free flour as well so my husband could eat them and all 5 people in the house thought they were really good. Mine didn’t spread very much so they weren’t the most beautiful cookie I’ve ever made, but they’re tasted great. 5 ⭐️! And with the price of eggs these days, I’ll be bookmarking this recipe!
Marley Braunlich
Wooo! I love to hear this. So glad you loved this recipe and are saving it for the future. Enjoy!
Nikki
Best cookies EVER! Added a Tablespoon of instant coffee and took it to the next level. My husband doesn’t eat many sweets, and he LOVED these cookies! My in-laws don’t eat non veg so to find such a great cookie that has no egg is great! They also LOVED the cookies! Thanks for the great recipe!!!
Nada
Excellent recipe, never fails
Marley Braunlich
Thank you Nada! 🙂
Aarthy
Amazing recipe.. my son and friends come home running to eat the cookies..all the credit goes to you. Thank you 😊
Marley Braunlich
Haha this is awesome! Way to go!! 🙂
Jill
Great cookies. I don’t eat eggs so I have tried many eggless recipes. This one is a winner.
Marley Braunlich
Yay! Comments like these make me so happy! Enjoy Jill 🙂
Gay
Wow what a fantastic find with this recipe! With the cost of eggs so dear I was looking for eggless recipes and this one proved to be amazing. So happy I gave it a try. My favourite cookies to make and enjoy! Thank you
Marley Braunlich
Thank you so much! I'm happy you enjoyed these egg free cookies 🙂
Annie
Coming back to leave a second comment now that I’ve made this a few times. It’s the best. I make them almost every week to take to movie night at my neighbors and people rave about them. It’s a great base recipe for various cookie flavors. I’ve tried various combinations - classic chocolate chip, white chocolate and macadamia, butterscotch, Reese’s/M&Ms. I also adapted this to the Inside Out cookie recipe so I could make an eggless batch of chocolate with white chips. My top tip for this recipe is DO NOT SCOOP the flour! When she says spooned and leveled she means it! I got lazy with that a few times and the cookies came out way too dense. The batter should be sticky to the touch but not so sticky that it stays on your fingers or is hard to handle. I am not historically a baker (too exact for my tendencies and I struggle with numbers/measurements) but this is so simple, even I can do it. More recipes, please!
Marley Braunlich
Thank you so much Annie for taking the time to write not one, but TWO five star reviews for this recipe! 🙂 I appreciate you sharing your fun flavor combinations. Wishing you many more chocolate chip cookies and movie nights. Cheers!
Christelle Léger
My daughter needed to bring cookies with no eggs or nuts to share with her kindergarden classe so I had to try a new recipe and landed on this one after searching the web
... They are AMAZING !!!! This will now be my go to recipe for cookies 🙂 Thanks !
Marley Braunlich
Awh this is great to hear! I'm glad this recipe worked for you as an allergen-friendly treat to bring to school. Enjoy!
Wayne
This might actually be some of the best cookies I've ever had, I found it in search of some cookies to make for my lover with an egg allergy and I'm happy for him that this has been his first and only experience with cookies so far!
Marley Braunlich
Wooo! I love this! Thanks Wayne 🙂
Alexandria Treantos
these cookies are so easy to make, but also so soft the next day!! amazing
Marley Braunlich
Thank you for this sweet 5-star review Alexandria! 🙂
Maddie
Amazing recipe, will be my new go to for chocolate chip cookies! Thank you!
Marley Braunlich
Thanks so much Maddie!!
Tanya Begley
I made these and they were absolutely delicious. I used a stick of margarine instead of butter. The texture was perfect. They were soft and chewy on the inside yet slightly crunchy around the edges. My husband loved them also! Thank you! If you don’t mind, I am going to share your recipe and your webpage on my YouTube channel, Classy Frugality. Since eggs are so expensive right now, I am trying to find frugal recipes that don’t require eggs. This was perfect.
Marley Braunlich
Thanks so much Tanya! I would be honored to be featured on your YouTube channel. Enjoy your cookies 🙂
S
These are delicious!! Thanks for sharing an amazing cookie recipe - super helpful during the egg shortage!
Marley Braunlich
Yes! I am happy you found this recipe. Enjoy!
Daniela
This is my go to recipe for cookies and it’s the best ever! I have no egg allergy or anything but not needing eggs in the recipe is super convenient and accessible for many people, without having to compromise the cookie outcome!
Marley Braunlich
I couldn't agree with you more Daniela!!
Theresa Dombrowski
With the price of eggs going up and up, I decided to give this recipe a try. I was a bit naughty though. Instead of water, I used Malibu rum 😁
They were Amazing!! And I think taking out the eggs made them lighter as well which is nice.
Marley Braunlich
haha this is amazing!!
Laura Shorrocks
I’ve made this recipe 5 times in the last 2 weeks because they have gone down so well with family and friends! They are delicious and perfect for my daughter who has an egg allergy. I’d like to make some oat and raisin cookies - do you have any guidance based on this recipe??
Marley Braunlich
Yay! This is awesome Laura 🙂 I have been meaning to adapt this recipe to make an oatmeal version. Until then, I don't have any specific recommendations on amounts for oats or raisins. I do have a different oatmeal raisin cookie recipe on my blog if you want to check that out for now: https://bakedabundance.com/healthier-oatmeal-raisin-cookies/
Gab
10/10
Marley Braunlich
Thanks Gab!
Alice Rose
I somehow didn't realise these were gluten containing cookies until I had gotten halfway through making the mix. These actually came out far better than the actual gluten free cookie recipes I've used! The taste is very nice and they were easy to make
Marley Braunlich
Thanks Alice!! Glad you enjoyed them 🙂
Ev
I love this recipe! Tried it out over the weekend and it came out of the oven perfect! Would definitely recommend these cookies for first-time bakers. (I halved the size and still put it in for 12 minutes. Don't know why that worked but I'm not complaining!)
Amie
Absolutely amazing. Eggless makes it ai my granddaughter can eat cookie dough bites from freezer. As I freeze dough and pull out to bake. Best egg less I found yet.
Marley Braunlich
So delicious!! Thanks Amie 🙂
Em
If it's for edible cookies dough be sure to also bake the flour. It also contains salmonella. I'm not sure the needed temp Since I learned that after making microwave edible dough myself.
Devin
Tastes similar to the safe to eat cookie dough! Trust the bake time, I forgot they won't brown much due to no egg and left mine in an extra 3 minutes. Still a great cookie but not the soft I was aiming fir, totally my fault!
Marley Braunlich
Thanks Devin! You're right, these are a bit lighter in color! Enjoy 🙂
Manjiree Balel
I have baked these cookies twice, and they turned out very delicious. Thank you for the spot-on recipe, especially without the eggs. I have a question: How do you make cookies flat? Ours are quite huge. Thank you
Marley Braunlich
Hey Manjiree, thank you for your review! I recommend trying the "pan banging" method or even flattening them out a bit with a spoon halfway through baking to achieve flatter cookies.
Logan G.
I have never been so moved to leave a review on a recipe … until now! Eggs have been so expensive at the grocery store that we’ve skipped them for a few weeks. Last weekend, we were desperate for a sweet treat, and so I had to go searching for anything eggless. That’s when I found this recipe, took a chance, and was IMPRESSED! I said, “Why did we ever put eggs in cookies before? These are perfect.” The dough is yummy, the same-day cookies are melty, and the next-day cookies are somehow even better. 100/10!
Marley Braunlich
Ahhh well thank you so much for taking the time to leave this awesome review Logan! 🙂 Enjoy!!
Esther St.Peter
Absolutely fabulous! My granddaughter has an eggs FPIS and these cookies are perfect. Thank you so much!
Marley Braunlich
Of course! Thank you Esther 🙂
Nikki
Love these cookies!!!
Marley Braunlich
Thanks so much Nikki! 🙂
Andrea
BEST choc chip cookie recipe I have ever tried...I was dubious of the water and no eggs, but...WINNER!
Marley Braunlich
Woooo! I love to hear it. Thanks so much Andrea! 🙂
DiAnna
Oh my. Out of eggs.I tried these. They are very good. I baked for 15 minutes. They're nice and crunchy on the edges and bottom. Put in my favorites! Subscribed so I can check out other recipes. Thankyou 🙂
Marley Braunlich
Thanks so much DiAnna!! 🙂
Reneé
Such a great recipe. I have an egg allergy in my home and this is the first chocolate chip cookie recipe I have found that gives a "soft chewy" texture, rather than "crispy". Thank you for sharing it. Even my friends can't tell it's egg-free. I do cook for 18 min at 6,000 feet elevation.
Marley Braunlich
Wow! This is so awesome to hear Renee! Thank you 🙂
Cynthia
TYFS! They look Delicious 😋! I'm making them now they're fresh out of oven lol! Letting them cool! I'm so excited! 😁❤ I added walnuts and 1 tbs of peanut butter!! Yes I'm extreme lol🤣😁 Good Blessings To you and your family!
Marley Braunlich
Thanks so much Cynthia! These sound delicious. Enjoy!!
CiCeJ
Hi, thank you for your recipe! Our son is on an egg strike so I decided to find a recipe for cookies, then stumbled upon yours. May I ask if these can sit overnight? I usually let my dough sit overnight to avoid the wrinkles around the edges so I wonder if these will have the same result or will the water separate?
Thank you so much!
Marley Braunlich
Hey there! You can definitely refrigerate this cookie dough overnight! The water will not separate. Thanks!!
Zbubs
They taste like subway cookies. Im vegan and these are as good as non vegan cookies. These might be better. I bake about 8 minutes in air fryer at 350. Then I flip them and bake 4 minutes longer at 330. Theyre soft on the inside and crisp on the outside. So crazy good. Unexpectedly good. I used mm’s minis in this batch. Those arent vegan but someone wasnt gonna eat them so I made the exception to use them. Beating the butter and sugar is essential. I beat the batter too on high speed. Dont get me started on these cookies. I half the recipe. It makes five. We also have these baking paper sheets for our air fryer that works well for them. These cookies are blonde as hell. I have some cooling right now.
Marley Braunlich
So awesome!! I'm stoked you love this recipe and can customize it to bake in your air fryer. Enjoy!
Soha
the cookies were superb, just a little grainy but i prob should have mixed a little more. i love this recipe i made them for a friend who cant eat eggs.
Marley Braunlich
Thanks Soha! 🙂
Vi
These are really very good, very simple, very delicious, and almost perfect the first time 'round. Only question, I was in a bit of a rush when first making so I didn't add any vinegar/acidic agent since it wasn't noted as an ingredient. Obviously it didn't change much, but I did realise that that was why it didn't expand like you mentioned. Was this lack of acidic agent on purpose, or just assumed? It does put off new bakers not aware of this (a friend lol)
Marley Braunlich
Hey Vi! This recipe does not call for vinegar or acid. Instead, the recipe includes both baking soda and baking powder and should be followed as written. Thank you and enjoy!! 🙂
Jesse
These tasted delicious but the first batch didn't flatten and spread properly in the oven. I double checked the ingredients and quantities, but after 12 minutes in the oven and another 10 minutes cooling on the hot baking sheet they were still dome shaped. Didn't affect the taste though.
For my second batch I flattened the balls with my fingers before putting them in the oven and those came out good.
Marley Braunlich
Thanks Jesse! Yes, flattening the dough balls a bit before baking or tapping the cookie sheets on a hard surface while baking can help these cookies flatten out if needed. Enjoy!
Sharon Woodruff
This has become a favorite around our home and among friends! I substitute the sugar and brown sugar for Truvia. Since my husband is diabetic. I’ve also made them with walnut and cranberries! They the best!!! Thank you so much for sharing! 🩵
lexi k
i dont think ive ever written a review for a recipe, but i absolutely had to for these. ever since ive developed an egg allergy ive been searching for a good recipe and these are perfect! i smacked them on the stove a few times after baking to make sure they were flat and chewy (not sure if it was necessary but it worked.) i used reeses pieces this time around and i will definitely be making more variants, thank you so much!!
Jill
My Grandkids love these….me too!
Jenna
Made these for the first time and followed the instructions, making sure to beat together the butter/sugar really well and when I added the water. I used a 2tbsp Oxo cookie scoop and baked for 12 minutes. My goodness! These for me are almost fail proof. I’ve done many different cookie recipes, and was craving some but didn’t have eggs and stumbled upon this and I am so happy I did! I feel like these are even better than other recipes I’ve done with eggs and the texture came out perfect with the middle being cooked, but the edges aren’t too crispy. 10/10 would recommend a try!
Asya
My sister made your recipe for a family event and WOW the cookies were SOOO DELICIOUS I just had to get the recipe to make more! And this is being said from someone who used to make and sell amazingly delicious chocolate chip cookies! “These are what every chocolate chip cookie should be” I told my sister. Thank you for sharing your recipe with us!
Gia
Recipe was fairly easy and cookies turned out pretty good. Was out of eggs but craving cookies, so decided to give it a try. Mine yielded 15 cookies and I cooked them for closer to 13 minutes. Thanks for the recipe!
Taylor
Made this recipe because I really wanted cookies but had no eggs.. one of the best cookies I’ve ever made. Tastes exactly like a regular cookie, my partner couldn’t even tell the difference.
I was a little nervous at the beginning because of how it was looking but eventually it came together and I’ve made them multiple times now!
Karin J
These cookies are the best!
Who needs eggs, and why did I ever use them before!
Thanks for sharing
Mia K
Amazing recipe!! So good. Thank you!!
nuha
I was confused on why salted butter is in the ingredient list if salt was already there. Followed the recipe anyways and they were too salty like I thought they would be so next time I would use unsalted or no salt. Aside from that they taste pretty good and are nice and soft I had no issues except for the saltiness.
Noam z
Just made these and they're AMAZING!
Everyone loved it, easy to make, incredible!
Charu Gohel
Hello Marley
Please can suggest a substitute for white Sugar because lots of White sugar is no Vegan.
Marley Braunlich
Hi Charu, I'd recommend finding a vegan granulated sugar for this recipe.
Cynthia P. Carr
I made 1 Big cookie like a footlong 😁 and cut into squares! I didn't chill at all just poured batter direct into greased pan! About 15-20 minutes or so
I Love this recipe! Tyfs❤😁😋😋
Marley Braunlich
Wow! Sounds delicious!
Anee’
These cookies are so delicious!!! I ran out of eggs and you are actually the first recipe that popped up! Thank you
Marley Braunlich
Wooooo!! Enjoy 🙂
Ruby
Hi, loved this recipe. The cookies were very tasty.
Can I substitute whole wheat flour for all purpose flour in the recipe?
Marley Braunlich
Hi Ruby! I have not tried making this recipe with whole wheat flour. If you do, let me know how it goes!
Margot
Amazing!!! New fav cookie recipe
Aashi
I loved the recipe!! Best eggless cookies ever :D.
i accidentally put 1/3 cup of water put they somehow baked out more or less great
Dawn Jones
OMG. I can’t believe how good these are without the eggs. You CAN NOT tell. I didn’t even chill before baking. First sheet had smaller cookies so I baked for only 10 mins. Center is gooey and edges are crisp. I used about a half cup dark brown sugar to a qtr light. Maybe added a richer taste? If you have someone with an egg allergy, they won’t feel left out with these!!!
Amelie
Just made these, they are perfectly squishy in the interior and the chocolate melts with the cookie. Easy to make and good to eat.
Nathaniel Justet
Used applesauce instead of water…. Turned out awesome!!!!
Jeff
I found this recipe because I wanted make cookies and didn't have eggs. I stumbled across this. I'm now making them for the fourth time and this is the only chocolate chip cookies I make now.
Thanks!
Sasha
This is a great cookie recipe. Perfect for when I run out of eggs. Thanks you
Ellie Polonetsky
Loved it
Cav
Very good easy recipe and everybody loved them, especially the chewy cookie lovers. Made them for a friend with an egg allergy who absolutely loved that there were cookies they could eat.
Only thing I would change is to make smaller balls next time, the 2" balls did not flatten out well so they came out like big cookie mountains - and we ran out of cookies too fast!
Karen
This has to be one of the best chocolate chip cookie recipes I’ve found. I have made them several times and now have to double my batch because they are gone so fast. Love it!
