yes. the proteins do.----------------------------------------------
Beaten whole egg is a slight rising agent (for instance this is what makes Yorkshire puddings rise), but on its own it will not make a cake rise, you have to add another rising agent such as baking powder, bicarbonate of soda (and an acid such as buttermilk or cream of tarter) or yeast to get the effect you want.
However there are ways in which you can process eggs to make them adequate as a rising agent all on their own (especially where the cake does not contain any flower). This can be done in two ways, you can separate the whites and beat them into a meringue which you then fold into the cake mixture (the air in the meringue expands and rises the cake). Or you can beat the whole egg with sugar until it is thick, pale and creamy before adding the dry ingredients (good for chocolate or ground nut cakes). Again the incorporated air trapped in the processing of the egg mixture rises the cake.
You can make cookies without baking soda or powder by using ingredients like self-rising flour, cream of tartar, or eggs as leavening agents to help the cookies rise.
how many eggs in half a dozen
To make my cookies rise, I use shortening instead of butter. Answer The cookies rise depending on the baking powder, salt, baking soda or creme of tartar ingredient that is included in the recipe. Of all of these, the dates on the baking powder and creme of tartar make a difference in their effectiveness. Make sure that you include the full measure of the amount requested by the recipe and that you bake the dough soon after mixing it. Check that your oven is at the desired temperature.
don't think you can, they wont rise .There are cookies that have no leavening.
To make them rise and not be flat.
No. The eggs don't make cakes rise. It is the baking powder in the cake flour.

Depends what else you put in it and your taste. My younger sister is allergic to eggs, so sometimes we make egg-free cookies. They're pretty dry...
In cakes, you whisk in the egg or eggs to make the mixture rise when it is being cooked.
The ingredients that make cookies firm include flour, sugar, and eggs. When combined, these ingredients become solid when baked.
