If you are a regular reader of my website, then you know I love cookies. It’s one of my favorite things to make and make them often. Cookies don’t take long and that means you can eat them even sooner. Warm cookies, out of the oven, are the best. I have a ton of eggless cookie recipes on my site.
Eggless White Chocolate Chip Cookies
I’m not normally a fan of white chocolate and I think this is the only recipe I have that includes it. It goes so well with the dried cranberries. Pecans are what make this recipe the best and it gives it that extra holiday taste. I also love this recipe because no cookie cutters are needed!
Ingredients in Eggless Cranberry White Chocolate Chip Cookies
- Butter– I normally use salted butter, but unsalted works fine too. Make sure it’s room temperature.
- Sugar
- Applesauce– You can use sweetened or unsweetened. I use what I have in my refrigerator.
- Brown sugar
- Vanilla– Making vanilla extract is so easy. You can get directions here. I just found vanilla beans at Costco for $12.99!
- All purpose flour
- Baking soda
- Salt
- Dried cranberries
- White chocolate chips
- Walnuts or pecans– I like pecans in my baked goods, but walnuts work just as well.
How to Make Eggless Christmas Cookies
Step 1
Preheat oven and cream butter, sugars, applesauce and vanilla for a couple of minutes in a large mixing bowl.
Step 2
Add in flour, baking soda and salt- dry ingredients – and mix until combined. It starts crumbly but quickly comes together.
Step 3
Fold in pecans, craisins and white chocolate chips using a rubber scraper.
Step 4
Drop the cookie dough by the spoonful onto a baking sheet (no parchment paper needed) and bake for about 12-14 minutes or until brown. Let baked cookies cool a few minutes before moving them to a cooling rack.
