Preheat the oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to beat the softened vegan butter, brown sugar, and cane sugar together until light and creamy (about 2-3 minutes).
Add the plant-based milk and vanilla extract to the wet ingredients. Mix until fully combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing with a spatula or wooden spoon until a dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the vegan chocolate chips, ensuring they're evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Scoop roughly 1.5 tablespoons of dough and roll into a ball. Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spaced about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The center will still look slightly underbaked, but it will set as the cookies cool.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy warm or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
