Servings: 16 large cookies
Calories: 266kcal
Ingredients
- ½ cup vegan butter melted
- ¾ cup creamy peanut butter
- ½ cup cane sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup almond milk or milk of choice
- 3 tablespoon applesauce
- 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper; set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk the butter and peanut butter together with a hand whisk for 20 seconds, then pour in the cane sugar and brown sugar and whisk for an additional 20 seconds.
- To that same bowl, add the milk, applesauce and vanilla and whisk to combine.
- In a separate bowl, stir the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together. Then, pour the dry ingredients into the wet and use an electric mixer to stir them together. The dough will look a little crumbly, but it should stick together when you pinch it with your fingers. Last, fold in the chocolate chips by hand.
- Use your hands to roll the dough into 16 large balls, placing them at least 2 inches apart on the baking sheets. Use your palm to flatten the balls out a bit, then bake the cookies for 12-14 minutes, until the edges have set but the center is slightly underdone. Leave the cookies on the sheet for 5 minutes, then use a spatula to transfer them to a cooling rack. Enjoy!
