Directions:Pre- heat the oven to 375 F.
Take out 2 cookie sheets, place in fridge or freezer to chill. It is important that the cookies are put onto a cool surface before going into the oven.
Step 1
Mix in small bowl and let sit for at least 10 minutes:
-flax

-baking powder
-salt
-chocolate chips
-oats if desired
Step 3
In a large bowl, mix the:
-canola oil
-margarine
-sugars
-vanilla
-the "egg" mixture from Step 1
-soymilk
mix well, but don't overdo it. chill dough in the fridge for a couple minutes, i know its a pain but its worth it.
Step 4
place cookies by rounded tablespoon onto an ungreased cookie sheet- bake for about 9 -11 min.
let cookies cool for about 5 min before removing from cookie sheet.
Source of recipe: I was sick of failed attempts at vegan chocolate chip cookies-- so i examined ratios and egg substitutes of other chocolate chip cookie recipes until i created a combination which is tollhouse like and yummy.

The ingredient list looks long, but its so worth it to have some cookies that finally taste real.
