Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cup Vegan butter, softened
- 0.75 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 1.5 cups Vegan chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened vegan butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Add the vanilla extract and applesauce to the sugar mixture, beating until well combined.
Gradually add the dry flour mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix as this can make the cookies tougher.
Fold in the vegan chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
Bake in the preheated oven for 9-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. The centers may appear slightly underbaked, but they will continue to cook as they cool.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve once cooled, and enjoy your delicious vegan chocolate chip cookies!
