Ingredients

  • 3/4 Cup Sugar
  • 1/2 Cup Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk

  • 1/4 Cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • 3 Cup Flour
  • Pinch of Salt
  • 2/3 Cup Chocolate Chips

Equipment

Method
 

  1. Drain the tofu by wrapping the tofu into a linen towel before starting anything in the recipe. That will give the tofu enough time to completely drain, this can take up to 10 minutes.
  2. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  3. Prepare two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
  4. Once the tofu has drained, cut the block of tofu in half. You only need one half of the block for this recipe. Save the other half for another recipe.
  5. Mix together the oil, apple sauce, tofu, sugar, almond milk, vanilla, salt and baking soda in a mixing bowl until all is well blended.
  6. Slowly add the cocoa powder and then start adding the flour, about 1/2 cup at a time while blending.
  7. Once everything is well combined, fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  8. Next, scoop out about 1/8 cup of the cookie batter onto the baking sheet.
  9. Continue until the baking sheet is full, leaving the cookies about 1 1/2 to 2 inches apart from each other.
  10. After filling the baking sheet, place into oven and bake for about 6 to 8 minutes, rotate the baking sheet and bake for another 6 to 8 minutes.
  11. Baking times can vary, so watch your cookies closely.
  12. When checking the cookies, they should be firm to the touch, when they are done.
  13. Move the cookies to a cooling rack to cool completely.
  14. Serve your Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies with a hot beverage of your choice or with a nice glass of your favorite ice cold beverage.
  15. Store the cookies in a air tight container.
