Why You'll Love This Recipe

Eggless: This recipe for easy chocolate cookies without eggs is a classic double chocolate cookie with chocolate cookie dough and dark chocolate chips. This recipe for Eggless Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies uses cornstarch and water in place of eggs. You can also use milk or dairy free milk if you prefer as well, making these easy chocolate cookies without eggs accessible with whatever you have in your pantry or fridge.

Rich Chocolate: These easy chocolate cookies without eggs are rich, because there is double the chocolate. A chocolate cookie dough is filled with dark chocolate chips and is dusted with sugar on top (which is my favorite way to finish a chocolate cookie!). The combination of chocolate cookie dough plus dark chocolate makes for a rich chocolate eggless cookie that you won't even miss the eggs in!

Soft & Chewy: Just like classic chocolate chip cookies, but make them chocolate. These are soft and chewy chocolate cookies with chocolate chips.

FAQ's

Can I use something else besides cornstarch?

Yes, you can also use tapioca starch or Irish Moss Powder in place of cornstarch as well. Or if you want to use milk in place of the cornstarch and water mixture in these cookies it will also work great! Use 6 tablespoons milk (cow’s milk, coconut milk, pistachio milk or almond milk will all work great!).

Can I make these cookies gluten free?

Yes! If you want to make these gluten free, check the Notes at the bottom of the recipe for the gluten free substitution. Gluten free cookies also do not rise and expand as much as cookies with flour. So, whenever baking gluten free cookies, be sure to flatten them a little more than the recipe calls for as they will not grow as much in the oven. For this recipe, flatten the so they are about 2 ½-inches in diameter.

Can I use another type of chocolate?

Yes! I use dark chocolate chips here, but you can use semi sweet, milk chocolate, or even white chocolate. Any of these options would be amazing!

Can I add flaky sea salt on top?

Um, yes please! I love sweet and salty cookies and I’ve made these with sea salt on top as well. Delaney prefers them without, and I made this batch for him, so there’s no salt. But, feel free to add the flaky sea salt in place of the sugar or in addition. Just be sure to sprinkle it on when the cookies are hot.

How should I store these?

These are soft and chewy cookies, so they need to be stored in an airtight container. You can keep them at room temperature, or you can also store in the freezer, so they last longer. They will thaw in a few minutes on the counter, or you can even microwave for 10 to 15 seconds.
