I love making something for my friends to help them through tough times as well as helping them celebrate fun ones — upcoming exams, engagements, and of course birthdays. Well my best friend Kori moved back to North Carolina last week for a new job (she’s from CT too but we both went to undergrad in NC), and she was nervous and excited all at the same time — a perfect opportunity for cookies! Kori offers a particular challenge since she doesn’t eat eggs or butter, but she wouldn’t be Kori if she wasn’t a little difficult, so I started an internet search for the best vegan chocolate chip cookies and voila…
Making vegan chocolate cupcakes as I did for Kori’s birthday doesn’t digress much from a non-vegan recipe, but substituting butter and eggs in cookies is a bit more challenging. As you can see from the photo, the cookies have some cracks in them — this is mostly because the recipe calls for oil, which is a cheaper and somewhat easier alternative in this case to vegan butter, but the stability suffers as a result. Since I made these for her to snack on during the 13 hour road trip, I ended up wrapping them individually in seran wrap so they didn’t crumble too much. With that being said, these cookies were delicious, no matter what kind of diet you adhere to. The addition of molasses really helps achieve the classic chocolate chip cookie taste, and I particularly enjoyed the crunch of the turbinado sugar. I also love the look of chopped dark chocolate in cookies instead of chocolate chips, so that choice made these even more enticing.
If you follow a vegan diet or have a vegan friend moving hundreds of miles away, consider making these cookies and the world will truly be a better place. From this blog you could gather that I’m clearly not vegan, but I do limit my intake of animal products as much as possible — using almond milk in my cereal every morning, incorporating meat into dinners only once a week, and choosing not to eat mammals (i.e. pork and beef). There’s a variety of ethical and health reasons that go into all this, but I just think it’s important to educate yourself on what you choose to put in your body and respect the choices of others. And if you’re interested in other vegan recipes, you have to check out my friend Kori’s fabulous blog:  www.kori-lynn.com!
Enough of my soap box, onto the cookies…
Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies
Adapted from Kirsten’s Kitchen
2 cups flour
1 cup turbinado sugar (or granulated sugar)
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup dark chocolate chips/chunks (make sure they’re vegan!)
2/3 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup soy/almond milk
1 tsp vanilla
1 tbsp dark molasses
– Preheat oven to 350 degrees
– In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and chocolate chips.
– In another bowl, combine the vegetable oil, milk, vanilla, and molasses.
– Add the wet mixture to the dry and mix well with a wooden spoon or your hands to get the mixture well incorporated.
– Roll dough into compact balls, place on a parchment paper-lined pan, and squish them down to form saucers.
– Bake in the oven for 8-10 minutes. Let cookies cool for 5 minutes on the pan before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Recipe yields about 16 cookies.
** If you want to try using vegan butter instead to improve the stability of these cookies, just substitute the amount indicated for oil, and cream the room-temperature “butter” in the bowl of an electric mixer with the sugar. Then mix in the rest of the wet ingredients, followed by the dry. Let me know how that turns out if you try it!

    you’ve tackled vegan cookies and cupcakes. i bet you can’t make vegan brownies. i bet you can’t. you won’t do it.

    Thanks man!!! John and I ate them the entire trip down. Although I felt very fat after sitting for 13 hours and eating a diet of cookies……To be expected

    These are fabulous! I tripled the recipe for work, as most of my coworkers are vegan. I had to make some substitutions, as I was out of oil (margarine and a banana). But then since I had the banana, I added some coconut and they were crazy delicious.. I’m excited to bring these to work!

    Anonymous, did you see the note at the end of the recipe regarding “butter” substitutions? The butter has to be creamed into the sugar. It should be room temperature and slightly soft, but not melted. Not sure if this helps, but thanks for trying the recipe and providing feedback.

    Thanks for this. The egg-laying hens and poor abused dairy cows thank you too. I had a choc chip cookie recipe in one of my vegan cookbooks, but it was a little crumbly. This recipe is just right. I wish more people were aware of just how easy and yummy vegan baking can be.

    These were very good cookies {except if you make the first batch without sugar! LOL. And honestly those weren’t that bad, you could taste the salt a lot in those} the 2nd batch I made were very good, couldn’t even tell it was a vegan cookie!! So delicious.

    My only probably was it was a dry batter. I don’t know what happened but I had to add some more oil to it. Next time though I am going to try butter instead and see if that makes a difference.

    I will definitely be making these again though, very good!

    Hi, is there anyway to substitute the molasses with something easier to find in a store, or just leave it out? It’s just very hard to come by it where I live :)
    Thanks for the recipe, looks great!

    • Erica — February 13th, 2012 @ 1:20 pm

      I think the molasses is important for adding the “Chocolate chip cookie” flavor, but maybe substitute brown sugar for the granulated/tubinado sugar? I’m not sure what else could be substituted, but you could see what Google comes up with :) Good luck!

    • Anonymous — February 21st, 2012 @ 3:28 am

      I decided to use maple syrup in the batter since I have the same problem of finding stuff in the small town where I live and it did a good job of adding that brown sugary flavor :)

    I made these twice, once with turbinado sugar and once with brown sugar. Both were delicious, but came out totally different. The turbinado cookies came out quite crunchy and were very dark in color. The brown sugar cookies looked like a traditional cookie and were moist and chewy. Thanks so much! Finally a vegan cookie recipe that tastes good and doesn’t call for 3 kinds of flour and hard to find ingredients!

    I’ve pinned these on Pinterest – they are my go to chocolate chip cookie. I’ve made them several times now. I typically substitute 1/3 cup of applesauce for 1/3 of the oil to lower the fat and I use sucanut instead of turbinado (and only 3/4 cup at most). Every time they come out delicious and I love that they freeze well so I’m not tempted to eat them all at once. I really dislike day old cookies but freezing these keeps them remarkably “fresh” tasting. Thank you so much for the fabulous recipe!

    Francesca — March 17, 2012 @ 5:32 am

    Made these with a little over 1/2 c oat fiber subbing some flour (maybe around 2/3 c), 1/2 c sugar (tasted plenty sweet! used turbinado), 1/3 applesauce subbing half the oil (had to add another dash oil AND almond milk to the batter though, it was dry), almond milk, 1 TB flaxmeal (added into the wet ingredients), and no chocolate chips (had none on hand). Puffy and soft, didn’t spread much but were DELICIOUS. Since I didn’t have any “mix-ins” I told my roomie to think of them as snickerdoodles and she thought they were delicious…as did I. [: Of course, the fiber changes the texture somewhat, but I would say that making these with flour would still have amazing results! Thanks! Easy, fast, awesome.

    Your recipe is really good. This was the first vegan dessert I’ve ever made as I’m learning about vegan cooking… and eating. I used Earth Balance butter (didn’t cream it first and was a little freaked out when I mixed it in the mixer with the other wet ingredients and it didn’t want to mix like normal butter), used unbleached flower and substituted 2/3 cup Madhava raw agave nectar for the sugar (first time ever using agave). The end result was a very sticky batter, but once baked for 11 minutes, the cookies are delicious. I used about a 1/4 cup more flour in the second batch and they were much easier to work with and also turned out perfectly. Thanks for sharing!

And I used a 1/3 of olive oil and 1/3 of vegan margarine. i also used my leftover easter chocolate bunny chopped up as the chips :) the dough was delicious and the cookie itself is almost done…. It’s taking about 15 minutes total in the oven on 325. first on the middle rack and then on the top one.

    These exceeded my expectations. I used to pride myself on my chocolate chip cookies, then I converted to veganism and was unsure I would be able to find a recipe that met my standards. I am now in love with these. I used whole wheat flour, almond milk, half olive oil and half coconut oil, half white sugar and half brown and I added almost a cup of coarsely chopped cashews. I used regular (non-vegan) chocolate chips that I had leftover. I think with the addition of the nuts the batter was a little dry and crumbly, so I added a bit more oil and almond milk and they turned out perfect. Once they cool, they are not too crumbly at all, the texture is perfectly chewy with just a bit of crunch around the edges. :)

    • Erica — October 16th, 2012 @ 12:45 pm

      I think the molasses is pretty important for getting that signature chocolate chip cookie taste, but just substitute some brown sugar for the turbinado and you could still get enough of the molasses flavor.

    Wow, your eating philosophy is so much like mine! I’d like to be high-raw vegan, but while my tastes and habits adjust, I have meat maybe twice a week (usually only a half serving or less), I average less than half a serving of dairy per day, and never buy jugs of milk anymore. I call myself a “meat minimalist”, though maybe it’s really “animal minimalist” (“ani-minimist” for short? Hehe, what a mouthful.)

    I doubled the recipe and used whole wheat pastry flour, subbing almond flour for a quarter of it. I actually went over to Kirsten’s Kitchen and printed that up to go off of, which uses a little less oil than this one, and I used Earth Balance for half, grapeseed oil for a quarter, and applesauce for a quarter. I added almond extract, and used almond milk. I think I made them too big, but the dough was so hard to work with, and I didn’t have time to chill it (ended up an hour late to the ward christmas party making these!)… so after baking them all for about 12 minutes, they still stayed almost too soft to hold together. I had to put wax paper between layers… but boy-golly were they tasty!

    Thanks for sharing this along with the link to the original!

    I just found this recipe and made them. We have recently gone vegetarian and are trying to go vegan as well gradually. These are soooo good! i ended up using half regular flour and half whole wheat, Vanilla Flax Milk and Earth Balance Soy Free spread and they turned out excellent! Definitely a keeper! My picky son even likes them too!

    I just made these and they are delicious! I used 1/2 whole wheat pastry flour and 1/2 spelt flour. I also ran out of vanilla extract, but happened to have a whole vanilla bean that I scraped the seeds from…Yum :) I used Earth Balance, slightly too much due to a miscalculation (oops), and they came out nice and crispy on the outside at 10 minutes in the oven. I assume if I used the right amount of EB, they would have been somewhat thicker and just as crisp on the outside. I usually try to bake low-fat, but every now and then I just need a yummy chocolate chip cookie…I think this will be my recipe from now on!

    Just wanted to say that I’ve been making these cookies for the last year or so and my son loves them, he even tells his friends that his mom makes the best chocolate chip cookies ever. Thanks for the great recipe!

    This is my all-time favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe. My best success was using vegan butter and substituting half the sugar for maple syrup. The cookies came out thick, moist, soft, and chewy. Yum!

    I love this recipe, but honestly, you state to respect others “choices” about what they put into their bodies. Ummm if your choice includes the destruction, murder, rape and torment of others, you clearly do not respect their choice not to have their children stolen, be stabbed in the neck, be hooked and drowned in a most painful manner. So please do not discuss ethics, or choices when discussing so blatant a lie. If you think your “choice” does not effect others look at their bodies and respect them. http://www.earthlings.com
