The Best Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies Ever!Ingredients (use vegan versions): 2-1/4 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup vegan margarine*
3/4 cup brown sugar**
3/4 cup sugar***
1 teaspoon vanilla
Egg replacer equivalent of 2 eggs ****
12 oz. vegan semi-sweet chocolate chips *****
1/4 cup soymilk (if needed) ******
Directions:Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, salt, and baking soda.
In a large bowl, cream together the margarine, brown sugar, sugar, vanilla, and egg replacer mixture. Stir in the flour mixture and mix well. Add the chocolate chips and mix. Add soymilk until batter creates the correct texture. (see note below)
Drop the dough by spoonfuls onto a lightly oiled cookie sheet and bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
*I used smart balance. It says vegan right on the top of the lid. You may also use any other VEGAN butters. Be sure it is vegan!
**My typical sugar is not vegan. I used vegan brown sugar from wholefoods. You can also find vegan brown sugar at usually any health food stores. Woodstock is vegan. Heck, if you wish... use more white sugar.
***You could use turbino sugar.... but that ruins the deliciousness a tad. Use woodstock or any other sugar that says vegan. You could take a risk by using store brand.... even though you're risking a lot.
****Don't use corn starch or bananas or apple sauce... use ENER G please. It is amazing. You could also use Bob's Red Mill which is found at Acme. Invest about 7 dollars for ENER G though... it has about 113 "eggs" in it.
*****Shop Rite brand is vegan... so is Girardelli semi-sweet, however... is amazing. It is vegan is so yummy-licious. Makes great cookies. And please... use the entire bag. No skimping out on the deliciousness!
******Okay, okay... UNORTHODOX! UNORTHODOX! Have you ever made vegan cookies/ANYTHING and found the batter to be.... crummy? They don't mold, they don't do nothing good! They don't even flatten out! WHAT IS THE POINT THEN?! Add soymilk.. until the batter is smooth.... add some... stir... and if needed add more. Think back to your unvegan days and remember what it is suppose to look like.. I, for one.... always get grainy dry dough. NOT GOOD! Add this soy milk to make it better! It doesn't affect how they taste... and yes, ricemilk/ anything vegan is all right.
TIPS: Use an ice cream scooper to put cookies on pan.
TIPS: Use a cookie sheet and maybe some parchment paper.... Air Sheets are amazing
TIPS: DO NOT GREESE PAN WHATSOEVER.... they smell like pancakes if you do D:
TIPS: Cook LONGER than 8 minutes... SHORTER than 11. Take them out when they're golden brown
TIPS: Keep baked cookies in an air tight container.. add bread peices to the container... trust me... it keeps them moist
