Ingredients

Dry

Wet

  • 1 cup unsalted butter ~2 sticks
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 4 oz. cream cheese softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350℉.
  • Place all of the dry ingredients into a bowl and stir to combine. Set aside.
    A white bowl is filled with a mixture of light-colored flour and small, dark chunks, likely chocolate. This blend suggests the beginnings of egg-free chocolate chip cookies. The surface is unevenly distributed and the bowl rests on a light-colored surface.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment add the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Cream on low speed for 5 minutes. The butter and sugar should be light and fluffy.

  • Next, add the cream cheese and vanilla extract and mix again until combined.
  • Slowly mix the dry ingredients to the wet and mix until just combined.

  • Use a 1.5 tablespoon scoop to scoop dough. Place 12 dough balls on a cookie sheet and bake for 11 minutes. Continue scooping and baking the rest until all cookies have been made.
    A baking sheet lined with parchment paper holds five scoops of egg-free chocolate chip cookie dough evenly spaced and ready for baking.
  • Cool for 5 minutes then transfer to a cooling rack.

Notes

  • The cookies should be puffy when they come out of the oven, but they should deflate once they have cooled.
  • It is important that the cream cheese is at room temperature so it can easily be incorporated into the creamed butter and sugar.
