Vegan Chocolate Chip Macadamia Nut Cookies
Makes 12-18 cookies
Prep time: 7-8 minutes
Cook time: 8-15 minutes
- 1 cup vegan butter, softened
- 1 cup organic light brown sugar
- 1/2 cup organic cane sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon ener-g egg replacer powder plus 4 tablespoons water
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/3 teaspoon salt
- 2 and 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup chopped macadamia nuts
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Add vegan butter, cane sugar, brown sugar, vanilla extract, egg replacer powder plus water, baking soda, and salt to a large bowl. Using a hand mixer, cream together the ingredients on medium speed for around 90 seconds.
- Using a spoon, mix in the flour. Once thoroughly mixed, add in chocolate chips and chopped macadamia nuts.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop uniform spoonfuls of dough, 2 to 4 tablespoons big onto cookie sheet, leaving around 2 inches between each cookie.
- Place into preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes for small cookies and 12-15 minutes for large cookies, or until edges begin to turn golden brown.
Notes: Cookies will continue to crisp up after baking, so if you prefer soft cookies make sure to take them out as soon as the edges turn golden brown.
