A deeply sweet, but not sugary chocolate chip cookie recipe.
Ingredients
  • 4 cups gluten-free flour
  • 1 cup vegan butter
  • 1 chia egg (1 tbsp chia seeds mixed with ¼ cup water)
  • 1½ tsp vanilla
  • 3tbsp molasses
  • ½ cup SugaVida or 1 cup coconut sugar
  • ¼ cup coconut sugar
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 cup chocolate chips (vegan)
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and baking powder. If you use unsalted butter, add a pinch of salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix together coconut sugar, SugaVida, butter, chia egg, molasses, and vanilla.
  4. Mix together until the butter has combined thoroughly and the texture is smooth.
  5. Slowly add your flour, mixing completely. You'll notice the batter gets very thick and hard to stir, this is just how you want it.
  6. Add in your chocolate chips and stir to incorporate.
  7. Grab a piece of parchment paper and set your dough on it. Place another piece on top of your dough and roll your dough out using a rolling pin. You'll roll the dough until about ½ an in ch thick.
  8. Grab a cup or circular cookie cutter and cut into large circle shapes.
  9. Use a spatula to transfer to your cookie sheet (lined with parchment paper).
  10. Repeat until all of the dough is used.
  11. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove and transfer to a rack to cool.
