baking soda makes cookies bigger
Baking powder is a rising agent, designed to make breads and cakes soft and fluffy. This is usually not desired in cookies.
Cookie dough recipes generally call for either baking soda or baking powder, which create gas that expands and causes the dough to rise while baking.
they will not rise well by baking or frying, other alternative is to mash the ingredients well
don't think you can, they wont rise .There are cookies that have no leavening.
To make sugar cookies without using baking powder, you can substitute it with baking soda and cream of tartar. Simply mix 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda with 1/2 teaspoon of cream of tartar for every 1 teaspoon of baking powder called for in the recipe. This will help the cookies rise and achieve a similar texture without the use of baking powder.
The recipe that I use calls for baking soda.
