Chocolate Chip Cookies

There’s something magical about the way chocolate chip cookies can turn a regular day into a sweet memory. For me, it’s time spent with my mom, measuring flour, sneaking a taste of dough and watching the cookies bake in the oven. These cookies have always been a family favorite — golden brown edges, a chewy center, and of course, a few extra chocolate chips for good measure. Whether you’re baking alongside loved ones or just indulging in a quiet moment, these cookies never fail to deliver that warm, comforting feeling. Ready to share a little love with each batch? Let’s get baking!

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ¾ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon fine-ground salt
  • ⅔ cup vegan butter
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup unsweetened plant-based milk
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup chocolate chips
  • Flaky sea salt (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F and line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
  2. Whisk together flour, baking soda and salt in a bowl. Set aside.
  3. Melt butter in a saucepan over low heat, then mix with granulated sugar and brown sugar in a large bowl. Whisk until smooth and slightly airy.
  4. Stir in plant-based milk and vanilla extract until combined.
  5. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  6. Chill dough in the fridge for 4-6 hours (or overnight for best results).
  7. Scoop dough into 2-tablespoon portions and place on prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until edges are golden and centers are soft. Remove from oven, gently tap the pan to flatten and sprinkle with flaky sea salt.
  9. Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling. Enjoy!
