Okay, I know some of you will roll your eyes at the word vegan. But trust me, you can’t tell the difference! Crisp on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside, with bites of gooey chocolate and pleasant hints of salt in each bite. In fact, these could possibly be your new go-to cookie recipe!

Note: I usually double the recipe because I usually use one tub of vegan butter.

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Chop up chocolate into chunks.

  2. 2

    Toast almond flour in a small saucepan on low/medium-low heat. Stir while toasting until noticeably darker in color or as desired.

  3. 3

    In a large bowl, sift together dry ingredients (AP flour, almond flour, soybean flour, coffee/espresso powder, salt, baking powder) and mix well.

  4. 4

    In a new large bowl, mix brown and white sugar together. Add in vegan butter and whisk together until fluffy.

  5. 5

    In a small bowl, mix oil, almond milk, and baking powder until blended. Add to butter/sugar mixture. Add in vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined.

  6. 6

    Fold in dry ingredients into wet ingredients, adding a third at a time. When you no longer see pockets of dry ingredients, fold in chopped chocolate.

  7. 7

    Use an ice cream scoop and place balls of cookie dough on a baking sheet with silpat or parchment paper. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate cookies for at least 2 hours.

  8. 8

    When ready to bake cookies, preheat oven to 350°F and place them about 6 inches apart. Top with sea salt before throwing into the oven for 16 minutes.

  9. 9

    Let cookies cool on pan for 10 minutes before transferring to cooling rack. Let cookies cool on cooling rack to allow edges to crisp up. Enjoy!
