Equipment

  • Cookie sheet or baking sheet, ice cream scoop or spoon, electric mixer

Ingredients

  • 150 grams vegan butter, room temperature (1 cup)
  • 200 grams cane sugar (1 cup)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 70 mililiters plant milk; eg almond, oat or soy (¼ cup)
  • 350 grams all purpose flour, unbleached (2 ½ cup)
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ a bar of vegan chocolate, roughly chopped (around 60g - ⅓ cup)

Instructions

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 180°C / 355°F. On a cutting board roughly chop chocolate until pieces have desired size and set aside. You can make them extra small or leave them a little bigger, whatever you like best.

Cookie Dough

  • In a mixing bowl, using an electric hand or stand mixer, beat vegan butter and cane sugar until it is light and fluffy. Add plant milk and vanilla to your butter mix and beat until smooth.
  • In a separate bowl, sieve and combine dry ingredients: flour, salt and baking soda. Add dry mixture to the creamy mixture and beat until cookie dough forms. With a spatula fold in your chopped chocolate.
  • Scoop the dough with an ice cream scoop (or spoon) onto a cookie sheet or parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Be sure to leave around 5 cm (2 inches) of space between the cookies.
  • Bake for 8 - 10 minutes.
  • Let them cool down for at least 15 minutes. They will look underdone when you take them out, but during their cooling down they will firm up more. If for some reason the cookies don’t spread enough, just press them a little down with a spoon after baking. Enjoy!
