How to Make the Recipe

3. In another bowl, mix the melted coconut oil and brown sugar until well combined.
4. Add the almond milk and vanilla extract to the wet mixture and stir until smooth.

6. Fold in the vegan chocolate chips.
7. Using a tablespoon, scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft.
9. Let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Pro Tips for Making the Recipe

Here are some of my favorite tips to ensure your cookies turn out perfectly every time:

• Make sure your coconut oil is melted but not hot; this helps to keep the cookies from spreading too much.
• For an extra chocolatey flavor, try adding a tablespoon of espresso powder to the dry ingredients.
• If you prefer a softer cookie, take them out of the oven a minute or two early.
• Feel free to mix in your favorite nuts or dried fruits for added texture and flavor!

How to Serve

These cookies are delightful on their own, but here are some fun serving suggestions:

• Pair them with a glass of almond milk for a classic treat.
• Serve warm with a scoop of vegan ice cream for an indulgent dessert.
• Crush them over a bowl of creamy garlic pasta for a sweet and savory twist!
• Pack them in lunchboxes for a sweet surprise during the day.

Make Ahead and Storage

These cookies are perfect for making ahead of time! Here’s how to store them:

• Once cooled, store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
• You can also freeze the cookie dough for up to 3 months. Just scoop the dough onto a baking sheet, freeze until solid, then transfer to a freezer bag. When you’re ready to bake, just add a couple of extra minutes to the baking time.
• For a quick family dinner dessert, bake a fresh batch right before serving!
