Vegan Chocolate CHip Cookies



Here goes a recipe!

2 c. All Purpose Flour (GLUTEN FREE: I like RICE flour and the All Purpose GF mixes)
1/2 tsp Baking Soda
1/2 tsp Salt
1 c. Brown Sugar (this is the key to flavor!)
1/4 c. Maple Syrup (the real stuff)
1/2 c. Veg Oil (I Use a little less)
2 Egg Replacers ( I use NRG Egg Replacer, found at wholefoods and health food stores)
1 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract (alcohol free) (I like using 1/4 of a van bean pod)
1 1/2 c. Chocolate Chips (check for non-dairy!)

What I do to make my life simple is add all the wet ingredients to the mixing bowl (Map Syrp, Veg Oil, Van X, Egg replacer) If using a mixer throw it on low so the oil emulsifies. Sift (or mix with a whisk) the dry ingredients together (not choc chips yet). Add the dry to the wet, mix until combine. Add in the Choc Chips (what you haven't been eating as you mix all the ingredients, I know you!) Mix only for a short time bc the chips will start to break and little choc flecks will color your cookies. I use an ice cream scooper to make sure all my cookies come out round and the same size for even baking! Bake at 350* , check cookies around 9 minutes. All ovens are crazy, so you will have to gauge the time according to yours.

These last a while in a sealed container. (Unless your house is like mine, that means 2 days) Once you make these you will never go back to the evil cookies with the chickens and cows in them! All kidding aside, these are really tasty! If you don't have egg replacer yet and you love baking as a vegan, pick it up! It will not go bad sitting in your cupboard!
