My favourite kind of cookies are not like these melting moments cookies which just melt and you need another one immediately. I love the chewiness of an oatmeal raisin and the pop bursts of a chocochip cookie. But this cookie is an absolute favourite with my husband and daughter. That is as good as any reason to keep making them.

These are eggless cookies and I am trying to keep a good bunch of recipes of eggless cookies. With my family not eating egg I need some tried and tested ones to whip up in a jiffy and give it to them. I am glad I found this recipe and it is a definite addition to my eggless baking collection.

Options & Variations

Though I loved these melting moments I am thinking of some alternatives I can bake with. I am thinking replacing some part of the all purpose flour with cocoa powder or almond meal. I think they should work beautifully. Of course there is the standard replacement option of trying this recipe with whole wheat flour. I will do that sometime though the almond meal excites me more right now.

I picked this recipe from Joy of Baking. But I felt it had too less sugar in the dough. It relied more on the rolled on sugar for the sweetness. So I amped up the sugar in the dough because I wasn’t sure the rolled on sugar will work uniformly throughout the cookie. So you can halve the sugar in the dough if you want.
