Ingredients needed:

• all purpose flour: can sub gluten free flour, like bob's mill!
• granulated sugar: and optional reg or light brown sugar too ( for softer cookie you have option of adding brown sugar)
• non dairy plant milk: I use unsweetened almond milk but you can use any variety you like even canned coconut milk
• salt and baking soda
• cinnamon: adds great flavour
• instant coffee: gives the cookies a wonderful richness
• vegan butter: I use earth balance to replace regular butter , tub or sticks work fine. becel works great too just make sure to read label, make sure it's vegan. There are a couple different kinds.

• vegan chocolate chips of course😊

How to make the best vegan chocolate chip cookies:

1. Ok let's get started, Preheat oven to 350° Line a large baking sheet . Set aside
2. To a large glass mixing bowl add the melted vegan butter (or melt right in the bowl in microwave) Whisk in the sugar(s), vanilla, plant milk and molasses.

What replaces the butter for vegan chocolate chip cookies?

I replaced the butter with Earth Balance vegan butter (have not tried coconut oil) and used a little plant milk in place of the eggs. No applesauce was needed! And no flax eggs either. It’s a really simple straight forward cookie recipe! That yields excellent results!

Pro tips for perfect vegan chocolate chip cookies:

• Use melted butter it increases the chewiness 
• For crispier cookies bake a tiny bit longer and using all white sugar increases the crispness where as using more brown sugar results in a softer cookie
• For softer chocolate chip cookies bake for a shorter period of time and or swap out a little brown sugar for all white sugar!
• I use molasses to add chewiness and flavour

Ok lets make some Chocolate chip cookies, they're:

• VEGAN
• CHEWY
• DAIRY FREE
• EGG FREE
• NUTTY
• SOFT
• CHOCOLATEY
• DROOL WORTHY
• SIMPLE DELICIOUS
