How to Make Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup vegan margarine, softened vegan butter, or solid coconut oil (SEE NOTE*)
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1/4 cup non-dairy milk (like almond or soy)
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp baking powder
• Pinch of salt (about 1/4 tsp)
• 1/3 to 1/2 cup dairy-free chocolate chips

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F for lighter, softer cookies with less crisp edges or 375°F for crispier edges and deeper golden cookies. (SEE NOTE**)
2. In a mixing bowl, cream together the vegan margarine and brown sugar until smooth.
3. Add the non-dairy milk and vanilla to the mixture and stir until combined.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
5. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring to form a dough.
6. Add the chocolate chips to the dough and mix until well combined.
7. Use a scoop to take 1-2 tablespoons of dough and roll them into balls. Place them on a cookie sheet.
8. Bake in the oven for 9-11 minutes or until they are golden. Let them cool for a few minutes before enjoying!

How to Serve Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

These cookies are best served warm, straight from the oven. You can enjoy them plain or with a glass of cold non-dairy milk. They also pair well with your favorite vegan ice cream for an extra special treat!

How to Store Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

To store these cookies, let them cool completely before placing them in an airtight container. They can be kept at room temperature for up to a week. For longer storage, place them in the refrigerator or freeze them for up to three months.

Tips to Make Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

• Make sure your margarine or butter is softened to room temperature for easier mixing.
• Don’t overbake the cookies; they will continue to firm up as they cool.
• If you prefer thicker cookies, chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking.

Variation

For a nutty twist, you can add 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans. You can also substitute the dairy-free chocolate chips with dried fruits or seeds for a different flavor.

FAQs

1. Can I use regular butter instead of vegan margarine?
Yes, you can use regular butter if you do not need the recipe to be dairy-free.

2. Can I freeze the cookie dough?
Yes, you can freeze the cookie dough. Roll it into balls and place it on a baking sheet to freeze. Once frozen, transfer the balls to a freezer-safe bag for later baking.

3. What can I use instead of brown sugar?
You can use coconut sugar or white sugar with a bit of molasses to mimic the flavor of brown sugar.
