Instructions
To begin your baking adventure with the Eggless Baked Chocolate Chip Coins, first gather all your ingredients, as this will streamline the process and keep your workspace organized. In a spacious mixing bowl, combine the caster sugar, unsalted butter (ensuring it is at room temperature for ease of mixing), and vanilla extract. Using a hand blender, whisk these ingredients together until they reach a creamy consistency, which typically takes about 5 to 10 minutes if whisked manually.
Next, it’s time to incorporate the dry ingredients. Sift in the whole wheat flour, Vivatta maida, baking soda, and baking powder into the butter mixture, ensuring that the ingredients blend well to create a pliable dough. If you find the mixture too dry or crumbly, you can add small amounts of milk gradually, just until the dough holds together nicely. Be cautious not to knead the dough excessively, as this can affect the texture of your cookies.
Once your dough is prepared, fold in the chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture, creating a lovely chocolatey surprise in every bite.
Before shaping your coins, preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (about 350 degrees Fahrenheit) for 10 to 15 minutes. While the oven is heating, prepare your baking tray by brushing it lightly with sunflower oil or a small amount of melted butter to prevent sticking.
Now comes the fun part: shaping the coins! Scoop out a teaspoon of the dough and roll it into a small ball. Flatten the ball slightly between your palms, creating a disc shape, and then place it on the prepared baking tray. Ensure to leave enough space between each cookie, as they will spread during the baking process. You should end up with around 20 to 25 coins, depending on the size you prefer.
Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 30 minutes. If you decide to make thinner coins, keep a close eye on them, as they may bake faster, and you want to avoid any overcooking that could lead to dryness.
After 30 minutes, carefully remove the baking tray from the oven and allow the cookies to cool completely on the tray. This step is crucial, as the cookies will firm up as they cool, achieving that perfect texture that melts in your mouth.
Once cooled, you can store your Eggless Baked Chocolate Chip Coins in an airtight container for up to a week, if they last that long! These cookies are the perfect companion to a warm cup of Masala Chai, enhancing your tea time with their delightful flavor and inviting aroma.
Enjoy!
Serve your delicious Eggless Baked Chocolate Chip Coins at your next gathering, or simply enjoy them as a sweet treat to brighten your day. With each bite, you’ll be savoring the love and care that went into making this charming recipe!
