Chocolate Chip Cookies (Eggless)

Chocolate Chip Cookies
These are so good, you won't miss the eggs (unlike other allergy-free menu options). These are husband approved and don't last more than 36hrs. in our house!
So here's the recipe:

Preheat the oven to 350*

Turn on your stand mixer to about speed setting 2
Place in it: 1 stick of butter (cold)
Add 3/4 c. sugar (white/brown mixed), next add 1 tsp. Vanilla Extract, then add 1 1/2 Tbsp. Oil (vegetable) and 1 1/2 Tbsp. Milk, follow that with 1/2 tsp. baking powder, 1/2 tsp. baking soda and 1/2 tsp. salt (only if your butter is unsalted) and then add in 1 1/2 cups Flour (I use a mixture of 1/2 white and 1/2 whole wheat flour), finally add in 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips. When all is incorporated, turn off the mixer. (You can taste-test because there are no eggs :), so pregnant ladies can safely eat this cookie dough too.)

Use a scooper to form 1" dough balls (you can fit about 15 to a sheet), you do not need to add extra grease to the pan. Bake for about 8 min at 350*. I start mine on the lower rack for 4 min and switch to the upper rack for 4 min. Enjoy!

In case you want the ingredients separately:
1 stick butter (unsalted)
3/8c. brown sugar
3/8c. white sugar
1 t. vanilla extract
1 1/2 T. oil
1 1/2 T. milk
1/2 t. baking soda
1/2 t. baking powder
1/2 t. salt
1 1/2 c. flour
1 c. chocolate chips
