My little sis baked for my husband sugar cookies for me to bring back for him. Heart warming gesture. He completely adores this 10-year-old from Singapore.

And so do I.  Baking with a kid just makes the experience so much more fun.  🙂

While baking the night before my flight – I snuck in bites of cookie dough.  I’ve always loved the dough more than the actual cookie.  Although, in this case – this recipe is quite debatable as the thought of both make my mouth water.

So we baked eggless sugar cookies that came out yummy.  She had found a recipe online and we modified it a bit.  Hope you enjoy them 🙂

Warning: Sugar High might be on a High!

Eggless Sugar Cookies

Bakes 30-35 cookies (depending on size) 

Ingredients:

• 1 stick salted butter
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 egg = 1/4 cup carnation milk + 1 tsp custard powder
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 4 cups flour
• 1 tsp baking powder

Method:

1. Preheat oven to 350F.
2. In a bowl, mix together butter and sugar using a beater.  Beat in egg replacement.
3. Using a wooden spoon, stir in flour and baking powder.
4. Refrigerate dough for an hour.
5. Mix dough up again – as it might be a bit dry.  Make into small balls and flatten.
6. Bake for 8-10mins on a cookie sheet (I always use cookie sheets – no greasing needed!)  Take cookies out when a bit golden on the top.  Do not over bake as it’s best when its neither not too soft and not too crisp.

Note:  Cookie does not spread, so you can bake many at one go.  With this recipe I noticed  that two trays were suffice.

*Baby Sis wanted to call them Smurf cookies – so she added blue colouring to some of the dough 😉
