Eggless Chocolate Chip Cookies

In the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the vanilla extract and water, followed by the flour mixture. It should make a soft dough but not too wet. Finally, add the chocolate chips and combine.

Using a cookie scoop or two spoons drop balls of cookie dough onto a parchment-lined cookie tray leaving enough space for them to spread. (3 inches apart).
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes on the center rack. Cool in the tray for five minutes then transfer to a cooling rack to cool further.
