Eggless chocolate chip cookie bars- probably the best recipe title ever! All things good, all things delicious and all things tempting.
What to keep in mind while making Eggless Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars
Make sure your butter is melted. Temperatures while making desserts are of very high importance. Even the milk has to be at room temperature.
There is also an enormous variety of brown sugar available in the markets but this recipe of eggless chocolate chip cookie bars uses light brown sugar so please don’t end up buying any different kind. While dark brown sugar has a complex taste in comparison, resembling to the taste of caramel or toffee and that is why we use light brown sugar for this recipe of eggless chocolate chip cookie bars.
There are little things one should always keep in their mind while baking and for the same, I have an entire blog post dedicated to basic baking tips which you can find here.

These eggless chocolate chip cookie bars basically have three layers- cookie dough, cream cheese and another layer of cookie dough. The chocolate chips in the cookie dough make it even better! You can top these eggless chocolate chip cookie bars with ice-cream or simply have them with warm milk.
