No, olive oil has a distinctive flavor and should not be used in cookies - try corn oil, canola oil possibly, but not olive oil.
You can replace it with other types of oil (corn, grapeseed, olive, ect.) or use applesauce instead.
Yes it will. Olive oil should be used more toward savory foods such as meat and vegetables. Olive oil has a unique taste and will effect the taste of your cookies. Instead use a mild no flavour oil such as vegetable oil or corn oil.
