Chocolate Chip Cookies

Combine first three ingredients in a small bowl and set aside (this is the substitue for 2 eggs). Combine remaining ingredients in order listed, except chips and nuts. Stir in flax meal mixture. Stir in chips and/or nuts. Roll dough into small balls and bake on an ungreased cookie sheet for 10-12 minutes or until very lightly browned. These cookies won't get browned nearly as easily as usual without eggs, so don't wait for them to look very brown at all. A better test is to touch the center of a cookie with your finger to see if it gives. If they're still too soft and doughy, bake a few minutes longer. Cool slightly, then move them to a wire rack to cool completely. Makes about 5 dozen
