Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350Âş F and line two cookie sheets with parchment paper, or one large baking sheet.
- Make your flax egg by mixing the ground flax seed and water together in a small bowl, and set aside for 5 minutes.
- In a stand mixer, with the paddle attachment, beat the softened vegan butter and sugar or agave/maple syrup for 1-2 minutes. You can also do this with a handheld mixer in a large bowl.
- Add the Vanilla and the flax egg that is now ready, and combine all the wet ingredients together.
- Next, add all the dry ingredients to the mixer and mix on low speed (or by using a spoon in the large bowl) until JUST combined.
- Add in the chocolate chips or chocolate chunks, and mix until evenly distributed throughout the cookie batter.
- Roll the dough into balls, using roughly 2 tbsp of dough for each.
- Place the dough balls onto the cookie sheets and bake in the oven for 10-13 minutes, until the edges are browned slightly. This will vary depending on your oven.
- Do not over bake these cookies, they will be light in color with brown bottoms.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes until they are easy to move, then place on a cooking rack.
Recipe Notes
Cookies should last in a container for 3-4 days.
You CAN freeze the cookie dough balls and bake at a later date. Just add a minute or two onto the cooking time, cook straight from frozen!
