You get soft, chewy, bakery-style vegan chocolate chip cookies that taste like the classic favorite. This easy recipe requires no egg or dairy substitutes and no chilling time.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup vegan butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon flaxseed meal mixed with 3 tablespoons water (flax egg)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups vegan chocolate chips (high quality recommended)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened vegan butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
  3. Mix in the flax egg and vanilla extract until just combined.
  4. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Fold in the vegan chocolate chips using a spatula.
  7. Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each mound. You do not need to chill the dough.
  8. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are set and slightly golden brown. The centers should still look soft.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For extra gooey centers, press a few extra chocolate chips onto the top of each dough ball right before baking.
  • Use high-quality vegan butter sticks for the best texture; avoid tub margarine.
  • If you prefer a slightly crispier edge, bake for an additional 1 to 2 minutes.
