I also use the Wilton recipe for cut out cookies, using egg replacer(I think I have doen either the baking powder/oil/water trick or the ener-g egg rplacer, both with good results). It comes out great. Poeple love my cookies! They keep their shape exceptionally well. It is on their website or comes with any cookie cutter they sell. becca

Thanks Becca!! I took your advice and used the Wilton Sugar Cookie recipe this weeekend w/ egg replacer and they came out fabulous! I think that the cookies were actually easier to handle and decorate than w/ eggs!!

I thought that the EnerG egg replacer was not peanut safe. Have you found another brand of egg replacer?

I use ener-g egg replacer, always have as long as we have been baking without eggs. I have gone through boxes of the stuff with never a problem.

What about it is unsafe? I know of no other brand, but you could do the baking powder/oil/water trick. I forget the proportions exactly per egg. I bet this recipe would also work with a teaspoon of baking powder added and just adding enough liquid(water) to get the right handling consistency. It is more shortbread-ish and not rising or spreading in nature. becca

I have also used ener-g egg replacer a lot w/o any problems at all. I looked the box over and it does not look like their would be any issues as far as nut/peanuts are concerned. Please let us know if you know anything different...this stuff has been my lifesaver and I'd be so disappointed if I couldn't use it!!

I could have sworn that I read on these boards that Ener-g was not peanut free. However, I just looked at the description on Miss Roben's catalog and they are listing it as peanut free.
