We investigated the quality characteristics of cookies made with Chungkukjang powder. Chungkukjang is a well-known nutritional supplement. Cookie samples were made by adding differrent quantities of Chungkukjang powder(0%, 4%, 8% and 12%). We examined the resulting, moisture, pH, color, spread factor, hardness and sensory evaluation of the cookies. While the moisture and, a and b value of the cookies significantly increased when more Chungkukjang powder was added (p<0.01), the pH, L value, spread factor and hardness of the cookies significantly decreased(p<0.01). Cookies containing 0% and 4% Chungkukjang powder had similar sensory evaluation score in terms of color, taste and flavor cookies made with 4% Chungkukjang powder had the highest texture and overall consumer acceptability scores.
