Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet 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, whisk together the melted coconut oil and coconut sugar until well combined and creamy.
Add the plant-based milk and vanilla extract to the wet mixture. Mix until smooth.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula, being careful not to overmix. Mix until a dough forms.
Gently fold in the vegan chocolate chips and, if using, the chopped walnuts or pecans.
Scoop approximately 1.5 tablespoons of dough and roll it into a ball. Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Lightly press them down to flatten slightly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. The cookies may look slightly underbaked in the center, but they will firm up as they cool.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your wholesome vegan chocolate chip cookies with a glass of your favorite plant-based milk!
