Veganuary 2021: Chocolate Chip Cookies

Now that I’ve eaten about 50 of these I can share the recipe with you. The actual recipe is in Sam Turnbull’s cookbook “Fuss Free Vegan.”

Here’s my rendition that I used in the above video:

Dry Ingredients

3.5 cups of all purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt

Mix these together in a bowl, set aside for a moment.

Wet Ingredients

1 cup white sugar
1 cup brown sugar lightly packed
4 teaspoons vanilla
3/4 cup vegan butter
3/4 cup refined coconut oil
optional approx. 1/4-1/2 cup soy milk or coconut milk

In another bowl cream sugars with butter, coconut oil, and vanilla till mixed. Add flour mixture a bit at a time mixing each time. Continue with all the flour mixture. If the dough seems too dry sprinkle in some of the milk, a little at a time, until the dough incorporates completely. (you may find you need less or more of the milk as necessary)

1 1/2 cups vegan chocolate chips (I buy the Costco brand when I can find them as they have no milk product in them and they are cost effective)
Optional: 1 or more cups of your favorite nuts , walnuts, pecans, peanuts…whatever you like. Throw them in whole or chop them up!

Tip: Divide the dough and add different things to each. My kids aren’t fans of nuts so I divide the dough in half after adding the chips. I add our favorite nuts, right now that’s walnuts, to half and leave the other half plain. Makes everybody happy!

Bake at 350 degrees for between 12 and 15 minutes.

It’s very hard not to eat either the dough as you’re making or the baked cookies. They are delicious!

if you don’t own Sam Turnbull’s book “Fuss Free Vegan” you need to run out and buy a copy!!
