Easy Vegan Double Chocolate Cookies

These cookies are deeply chocolaty, with a soft and fudgy texture that melts in your mouth. The recipe takes about 30 minutes from start to finish and yields approximately 15 cookies, making them perfect for sharing or indulging on your own.
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup coconut sugar or brown sugar
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 cup coconut oil (melted)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup dairy-free chocolate chips
- Optional: 1/4 cup chopped nuts or vegan marshmallows
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, mix the coconut sugar, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until a thick dough forms. Fold in the dairy-free chocolate chips and any optional ingredients.
- Shape Cookies: Scoop tablespoon-sized amounts of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart, as they’ll spread a bit while baking.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center remains soft. Let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
