The Best Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies You’ll Ever Put in Your Face

Just because these cookies are vegan doesn’t mean they are filled with rainbows of health and nutrition; they are however filled with luscious chocolate and gooey goodness. I guarantee they will melt your face off as well as your non-vegan friends’ faces with happiness and joy for this old-fashioned favorite that happens to have a non-dairy spin. Throw some nuts into them to shake things up. Here's what you'll need:

½ pound buttery vegan sticks
1 ½ cups sugar
1 tsp molasses
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp salt
1 ½ tsp baking soda
2 tblsp non-dairy milk
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ cups chocolate chips
1 cup cashews (optional)

Preheat oven 350F. Cream together with a mixer the buttery vegan sticks and sugar until fluffy and light. Toss in your vanilla, molasses & non-dairy milk and blend more. Add in salt and baking soda and blend a little more. Add in flour a little at a time (to prevent a poofing mess by the mixer). Fold in by hand the chocolate chips and nuts. Drop tablespoonfuls onto an ungreased cookie sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake 8-9 minutes, less for a softer finish, more time for crunchier. Let them cool for a few minutes before placing onto a cooling rack. Eat while warm for maximum deliciousness. Makes about 3 dozen.
