Cooking from scratch is healthy, fun, and self-empowering. You decide what ingredients to use. My recipes feature lots of vegetables, spices, beans, whole grains, tofu, baked goods and desserts. All so tasty you won’t miss the meat, eggs or dairy. I do try to keep it healthy. I veer off-topic from time to time for reviews and things that catch my interest.

Chocolate Chip Cookies for Everyone - soft, chewy, non-dairy & egg free
These chocolate chip cookies disappeared before 10:30 a.m. when I brought them to work. They're soft, chewy, loaded with chocolate chips, and oh, so delicious.
The recipe is adapted from Vegan Cookies Invade Your Cookie Jar, one of my go-to cookbooks. Every recipe I've tried has been delicious. Here is the original recipe posted on 6 Bittersweets blog. You can choose to follow the recipe exactly or change it slightly. The batter is a bit loose so be sure to leave room between scoops when you bake them.
My changes:
1/4 cup brown sugar replaced with 1/4 cup blond coconut sugar
1/4 cup white sugar replaced with 2 TB organic cane sugar
1-1/2 cups flour replaced with 3/4 cup spelt flour & 3/4 cup all purpose flour
The next time I make it I will replace ALL of the all purpose flour with half spelt and half whole wheat pasty flour. Mmmmm!

Soft, chewy cookies are the best kind! And I love all the changes you made too. I don't even know what is blond coconut sugar. :-)
ReplyDeleteLove those chewy cookies! Blonde coconut sugar is just a light brown sugar made from coconut palm nectar. You could certainly use plain old brown sugar or Sucanat if you have that on hand.
