Can I skip the vanilla in Chocolate chip cookies?

[qtpy4u00]

What does the vanilla do to the cookies and can I skip that step if I'm out of vanilla??

 

[♡cHoCoLaTe♡]

yes u can. its just for flavor

 

[Squirrel_is_a_yankeefan]

Yes you can. It will still be good.

yes, they'll be missing that little flavor but it'll be fine.

it gives them flavoring . if u dont have vanilla, its ok but the cookies would taste better with it.

You can, but the flavor will be bland. Do you have any other type of extract that you can substitute?

Yes you can skip the vanilla if you would like.
A lot of people (like grown ups) don't put vanilla in anything at all because it is made out of vanilla beans and alcohol (unless it is artifical I THINK but not sure).

It adds a more 'vanilla' and distinguished taste - doesn't really do THAT much and you won't be missing out on much without it.

Yes: taste

Don't worry, the vanilla just gives it a vanilla flavor. It will be fine if you skip it.

i wouldnt a lil shot of vanilla makes a big difference in flavor

 

[~t0pN0tCh~]

yea u can skip the vanilla. all it does it give it a little more flavor

It just rounds out the flavor of the cookie.
It will not affect the baking process so if you are out you can skip it. You probably will not notice a big difference in taste, but it will be slightly blander than if you had used vanilla.
