APPLESAUCE COOKIES

By á-6184

For Eggless:-1/2 extra apple sauce OR 2 tbsp soya/ gram flour + 2 tbsp water

NOTE:
I adapted the recipe to make it eggless. I also creamed the butter, shortening & sugar instead of mixing all the ingredients together. The cookies were very soft & turned out like little soft cakes. 1 cup white sugar is Just the right amount for us.

Ingredients

• 1/2 c. butter
• 1/4 c. shortening
• 1 1/2 c. white sugar (1 should be ok)
• 1/2 c. brown sugar

• 1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
• 2 c. applesauce
• 4 1/2 c. flour
• 2 tsp. baking soda
• 1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp. cloves
