BEST EVER VEGAN CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES!

Oh my gosh! This vegan chocolate chip cookies recipe is AMAZING!
My son rated them a whopping 11 out of 10!
They have no eggs or dairy and are without a doubt one of the best cookies I have ever tasted.
My taste buds were definitely doing a happy dance as I was eating these.
Be careful though, they are super addictive and you may end up eating the entire tray full yourself :)

You weren't kidding - These are BEST EVER VEGAN CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES! They turned out great on the first try. Im always very disappointed with vegan cookies and to have one that is low sodium and no oil is fantastic. Thank you so much for all the hard work and love you put into your recipes!

[@MrJaeGun]

Your intro has been stuck in my head all day! I've been binge-watching all of your videos all day! -- proud vegan to another

[@cookingwithplants]

Glenn GoGo lol glad you like the videos :-)

[@phylliscable63]

Just made these. My husband helped me convert the milliliters into cups since I am terrible at the metric system. They turned out soft and cake like but very tasty. Definitely easy to eat.

[@jayacevedo2784]

Ooooooh, Lord... I just made these and they are BOMB! I added cinnamon and I caramelized some pecans with a bit of maple syrup and added those into the mix. Thank you for the wonderful recipes! Needless to say, between my roommates and I, they only lasted for about 20 minutes after coming out of the oven!

[@cookingwithplants]

+Jay Acevedo lol, so glad you love them as much as I do :-)

[@vernawise9669]

I made these cookies and they are simply delicious! I love the music to your intro it makes me smile every time I hear it!

[@cookingwithplants]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@julabuddha]

Sensational!! I just baked these and they're delicious! And no oil!!! YES!!! Thank you for the wonderful recipe!

[@cookingwithplants]

+julabuddha Glad you liked them :-)

[@640A]

The cookies look delicious and your eyes are mesmerizingly beautiful.

[@Veemerica]

Made these with raisins instead of chocolate chips but they are still delicious!!

[@cookingwithplants]

Veronique Blommaart Fantastic :-) I was going to mention the raisins option in the video but forgot. Thanks for letting everyone know :-)

[@AiAddysonZhang]

Just made them tonight. They are SO good!!!! Thank you! Love all of your recipes! You are such a great #veganchef!

[@cookingwithplants]

+Ai Addyson-Zhang Thank you :-) x

[@Bekind95]

Mine just came out of the oven 10 minutes ago and I have gobbled up one and on to a second one. So delicious. Thanks for sharing your fantastic recipes!

[@cookingwithplants]

+Karen Ryan Glad you like them :-)

[@CloudiaTsang]

Just finished making the recipe by watching this video step by step. The cookies came out soft with a bit of a cake-like texture and the flavor is amazing! I think the dates add all the goodness. Great recipe!

[@cookingwithplants]

Claudia Tsang Glad you like it :-) If you want it less cake-like just put less baking powder and baking soda :-) But I like them fluffy and soft.

[@lotsofcats403]

These are amazing. absolutely loved them. I shared them around at work and everyone loved them too. Thank you for the recipe xx

[@cookingwithplants]

+Sarah Elizabeth You're most welcome x

[@untouchablemiz]

I've made these twice in the last week. They are sooooo yummy!!! I did reduce the amount of chocolate chips to 1/3 c. Best cookies I've ever had, hands down!

[@cookingwithplants]

Simply_Mari Thank you :-)

[@calincroga6995]

Anja these are rockin' cookies. Thx! Totally yum.

[@mommacheapskate1497]

Another great thing about vegan baking is getting to eat the dough without worries!! They look delish!!

[@cookingwithplants]

Plant-Based Cheapskate Absolutely!!

[@airyfairycelt]

Thank you both for the alternatives. I shall be trying them .

[@cookingwithplants]

+airyfairycelt Enjoy!

[@jessicas8119]

Am I the only one who is not vegetarian but watches these videos because they look so good?

[@glendaanderson4969]

Ohhh, unmm, could you let the rest of the carnivores know just how delicious vegan food is???pretty please? Sincerely, all vegan people

[@cookingwithplants]

***** I enjoy so much more food, flavor and variety since eating this was... and believe me I never thought I would be vegetarian, let alone vegan :-)

[@cookingwithplants]

miss glenda :-)

[@musicloverbaby1003]

i need to try this recipe

[@cookingwithplants]

+Music lover baby mccullough Enjoy!

[@butterflymagicwithhottea9291]

If the directions, oven heat, were here, I could easily copy and past - rather than go to website. They look good. Will make today.

[@montezumasprincess1353]

This vegan chocolate chip cookies amazing!

[@cookingwithplants]

+Montezumas Princess Thanks x

[@Veganlovlie]

It sounds like these are really good when you tasted it. :D I'm gonna have to give them a try.

[@cookingwithplants]

Veganlovlie Yes, super yummy!!!

[@dianakara7770]

I just made these and they truly are the BEST choc chip cookies I've ever tried!! Now, I have to figure a way to stop myself from eating the whole lot. 😳

[@cookingwithplants]

Diana kara§ Don't stop ;-)

[@ninimacs2244]

i made them last week and they were SO delicious! best cookies ive ever made ;)

[@cookingwithplants]

+Jen daBanana Fantastic :-) SO glad you like them as much as I do :-)

[@alyssarosengard6674]

I made them today. Thanx for the inspiration! I used gluten free flour b/c I have celiacs and added a little bit of xantham gum. They r delicious.

[@cookingwithplants]

alyssa rosengard Fabulous :-) Glad you like them :-)

[@peacefeline1107]

I made these for my family and we gobbled them all up!💜

[@cookingwithplants]

Wendy Vernon Excellent :-)

[@colettehazard5623]

Assuming the amounts of baking powder (2 tsp.: 1,520 mg. sodium), baking soda (1 tsp.: 1,280 mg. sodium) and salt (1/2 tsp.: 1,060 mg. sodium) are correct, the sodium in this recipe really concerned me -- 3,860 mg., or 297 mg. per cookie @ 13 cookies. This didn't dawn on me until mixing a batch, so I made another batch ... except didn't add any baking powder/soda and sea salt ... and combined the two batches. The cookies turned out terrific! In addition, since I made our cookies a little smaller, it made 35, which brought it to 110 mg. per cookie -- much better. May cut back the chips down to 1/3 cup (3 oz.) next time. We love them and have a hard time not eating more than 2. I store in the frig to guard against mold, just in case. Fantastic recipe with the sodium change -- thanks!

[@RunningKyleRoy]

+Colette Hazard Good call! I was also concerned about sodium. Who wants to make a batch of cookies and only eat 1 or 2? I don't know if folks realize how much sodium is in baking soda. Or even care? You can find lower sodium baking powder.

[@helenan.i.kristiansen1635]

OMG😘👍🏼!!!!!!🎆🍪 They are to the Stars goooood!!!!.YOUM!!!🍪😍 I love them!!!. Thanks Anja😍😘🤗 I must admit, that I tweeked it a bit! I cut some vanilla fudge caramel( the ones you buy as candy), into little squares, and put them in as well, as the chocolate, they are byond delicious 😋🍪wauw!!! I have been looking for a recipe for quite some time now, that I could use, because I use spelt flour, the Body, can easily digest spelt, because the glutein in spelt are shorter, than Frankenwheat, that the Body can not regonise, I always make my own sourdough bread with spelt flour as well!!!😋🍞, it is SOOO good!!!!! I Love your recipes, but did not know you made a cookie recipe😘🤗👍🏼 Love you Anja, lots of Heart felt hugs to you❤️😘😍👍🏼!

[@shelleydal]

just made them and fam has already eaten half of my batch and they aren't vegan!! amazing so delicious

[@cookingwithplants]

+Mitzi179 Fantastic :-) So glad everyone likes them x

[@JanelHathaway]

killin me with the yummy food noises at the end! I want the cookies! lol

[@lnicole2504]

Oh my goodness, I don't now how I totally missed this video. These look so good I will definitely be making them soon :)

[@MsJudeSA]

Another brilliant recipe ... Thank you xx

[@cookingwithplants]

MsJudeSA Thank you :-)

[@dianakara7770]

I will definitely be making these cookies in the next couple days Forsure! I love chewy cookies 😍

[@cookingwithplants]

Diana kara§ Enjoy!!

[@jayacevedo2784]

Hi!!! As always, everything you make is wonderful and delicious! I'm transitioning into a vegan diet and I have to confess that it was thanks to you! I have been making your recipes, I have been watching every video you've made (now I sound like a stalker, sorry, hahaha), and I watched Forks Over Knives, and it really has made a positive impact in my life so thank you! You're a saint! So you mentioned something about your favorite vegan chocolate, which one is it? Which V-chocolates do you recommend? And thank you so much again!

[@cookingwithplants]

Jay Acevedo Wow, that's fantastic Jay! So glad that I had a positive impact on you and that your life :-) It is such a great lifestyle! My favorite vegan chocolate in Australia is Eskal and Sweet William, also the Lindt dark chocolate. However they do all very high fat so I try not too have them too often. I prefer to make chocolate mousse with avocado and raw cocao instead :-)

[@jayacevedo2784]

Yes! I've been making that mousse religiously! I have a batch in the fridge right now, actually! Thanks again and can't wait to see what else you upload!

[@sallysmith3684]

Delicious, we just made them! They came out kinda muffiny but that might have been a slight mistake we made 😂 thanks for your continued awesomeness! Stay cool, mum!

[@LocalMarketing47]

Can't wait to make these!

[@cookingwithplants]

Kimberly Hester Enjoy :-)

[@juliewerner9592]

Wow!! The mix is so good it barely made it to the oven, now to wait the 12 minutes cooking time and 10 minutes cooling time 🙉. But who’s counting hahaha

[@cookingwithplants]

Wooohoooo... so glad you like them :-)

[@lilyb7627]

amazing, thank you so much for sharing another amazing recipe!!

[@cookingwithplants]

whyoweyou Glad you like it :-)

[@katzensindweich3505]

[@cookingwithplants]

Sigrid Meeresfischlein :-)

[@sfzombie2473]

You never disappoint 👍👍👏

[@mindy144]

These cookies are so good!!!!!

[@cookingwithplants]

+Our Vegan Journey Thanks. Glad you like them :-)

[@stacieonelove1057]

I love your videos so and have used a lot of your recipes....

[@cookingwithplants]

+Holistic Sistah Awesome :-) I'm glad x

[@francesca.sevenroses]

I'm going to make these tomorrow, I would go make them right now but alas I'm missing the main ingredient.... no chocolate in the house (this happens quite rarely!). The addition of dates is quite interesting, can't wait to try them :)

[@cookingwithplants]

francesca Ⓥ di leandro Enjoy :-)

[@Natshki]

They are soooo good!! Thank you!!!

[@cookingwithplants]

Katherine Smeraglia Glad you like them :-)

[@mirandas0123]

Amazing recipe this is my new go to cookie recipe thank you so much!

[@Onekitchenblogfood]

They look wonderful!! :D

[@cookingwithplants]

One Kitchen - A Thousand Ideas Thank you :-)

[@SymeonZog]

These are really fucking amazing! Excuse my language but I just ate own right after I bbaked them and I had a huge foodgasm! Always great recipies from you! Oh and I am preparing your pizza dough for some pizza later! Lots of cookie love! :D

[@SymeonZog]

+Συμεών Λαγόπουλος Actually I wanted to add peanutbutter to to make your other recipie but I forgot watching these one! I cannot imanige how much better they would taste! And I got about 20 normal sized cookies!

[@cookingwithplants]

+Συμεών Λαγόπουλος hahaha... so glad you like these as much as I do :-) x

[@SymeonZog]

It is obvious that I wasn't concetrated from the excitement and I made so many mistakes! And my pizza was nice too! I put on top some of your cheese sauce too! It goes great! It was the first time I made a pizza so it was just good and I expect next time to be better! :D

[@Enviousrain]

Hey, i dont know if it's because of the flour i used, but it turned out too soft and puffy. I think itd be better to use less baking powder and soda if using oat flour.

[@cookingwithplants]

Enviousrain Did you use metric measurements. They are a soft style cookie. You can always lower the amount of baking powder. Just experiment a bit and adjust the mix :-)

[@Enviousrain]

Yes, thank you! But taste wise they were good!

[@JerryCoadySpaceAngel]

Great. Thank you. I will be trying those ones. :-)

[@cookingwithplants]

Jerry Coady Enjoy!!

[@tiffbott41]

Id really like to know why you choose to use coconut sugar. i don't think i really know what it is and why its a better choice. Hope to hear back :) x

[@cookingwithplants]

+tiffbott41 It is low gi and tastes amazing. Not a bleached processed like regular mass produced sugars.

[@macgimli7913]

I should have cut the amount of baking powder and soda in half. The cookies turned out like muffins and leave a tingling sensation bitter aftertaste in my mouth. I'll try again sometime with a lot less leaveners. :)

[@sulma8339]

that's what happened to me

[@amirasafwat7101]

Camera man likes it :) i should try it. btw is your son vegan too?

[@cookingwithplants]

nina dobrev Yes, my son is vegan too :-)

[@amirasafwat7101]

CookingWithPlants Great :) Send my Hii.

[@tweety1028801]

So I made these last night and they were awsome. They were crispy when I took them out but now they ate soft. Are they supposed to go soft? They're still good either way.

[@cookingwithplants]

tweety1028801 Yes, they do go soft. If you want them more firm, just reduce the amount of baking powder/soda :-)

[@tweety1028801]

CookingWithPlants thanks 😉

[@cjwaller71]

I'm made this and it turned out great. Whenever you decide to put together a recipe book, I will be your #1 fan. Great😉. Do you have the nutrition facts for your recipes. I would like to keep track. I do not know how to get it for cooked meals. Maybe you or someone who read this can help me. I do have cronometer app.

[@Veemerica]

Why not create a new recipe in cronometer, input all the ingredients in the right amounts and divide into the amount of cookies you make to get one serving. That should give you the nutritional facts.

[@cookingwithplants]

cjwaller71 Thanks for the lovely feedback. I don't have the nutrition facts for this as it would vary depending of what exact ingredients are being used.

[@cookingwithplants]

Veronique Blommaart Yes :-)

[@moonlightontheriver]

for those of us who cant have chocolate, maybe try carob nibs...i find it very difficult to bake with gluten free flour ..any suggestions would be helpful. awesome recipie.......

[@cookingwithplants]

moonlightontheriver I will see what gluten free options I can come up with :-)

[@moonlightontheriver]

thank you..much appreciated :) do you have any recipes on how to make 'chocolate' from carob ?

[@rawfoodnoob]

moonlightontheriver You can buy carob chips in a bag.

[@jayacevedo2784]

Hey! I highly recommend Bob's Red Mill 1:1 baking flour (gluten free) mixed in with some oatmeal flour (I used half a cup of each). Bob's has GF oatmeal flour as well!

[@twocupsoftee]

Thank you so much!

[@cookingwithplants]

twocupsoftee Glad you like it :-)

[@lorettamiller4536]

Can I use either Coconut flour, Oat Flour or Almond flour instead? Thx:)

[@ArtTara]

Will a gluten-free flour blend work in this recipe?

[@Mikejames1080]

Did anyone else's come out a little cakey inside rather than like a cookie? I wonder if it'd be better with less baking powder/soda?

[@OrganicFaithFactory]

thanks so much

[@cookingwithplants]

Faith Factory Enjoy!!

[@gabriellerodriguez5639]

Whole meal means whole wheat?

[@iwillsinganewsong]

Have you ever added flax "eggs" to this recipe?

[@cookingwithplants]

***** No, but you can if you want to. I love them just the way they are :-)

[@StefanundLulu]

Are they crispy? :) or more soft? Because I would like to make very crispy ones :)

[@cookingwithplants]

Lulus Dreamtown They are soft. I'll do a crispy cookie soon.

[@StefanundLulu]

thank you! :)

[@peacefeline1107]

CookingWithPlants yes! I'd also like to see a crispy cookie recipe.💜

[@cyssoK]

CookingWithPlants please make a crispy one!

[@kavisha555]

Anja, did you ever get around to making a crispy cookie recipe?

[@limbsdemon]

Yum! Do you think oat flour would work to make them GF?

[@cookingwithplants]

Kayla Seguin I have never tried it with oat flour, but I think it would work. Let me know how it goes if you do try it :-)

[@jayacevedo2784]

Hey Kayla! I used half a cup of Bob's 1:1 Baking Flour and half a cup of oat flour and they were perfect!

[@dianakara7770]

How long do you think they keep at room temperature?

[@cookingwithplants]

Diana kara§ I would say a day or two... I have never made it that long without eating them all!

[@rchhcsupernova]

OMG I need thisI need this!! =]

[@cookingwithplants]

Rafaella Chiarella Enjoy!!!

[@pennyv7513]

I realize this is an old video, but is your chocolate chip cookie recipe in metric or imperial? I see cups and teaspoons, so to me that means it is already in imperial. I am in the US and would love to try your cookie recipe this weekend =)

[@cookingwithplants]

It is metric but you can convert and print the recipe of my website at www.cookingwithplants.com

[@pennyv7513]

CookingWithPlants Thank you! I am going to make the cookies today. Also, I made your cheesy potato bake yesterday and my husband and I LOVE it! It is so delicious! Best vegan cheese sauce we have tried, hands down! Thank you for sharing your inspirational recipes 😀

[@pennyv7513]

These are the best HEALTHY chocolate chip cookies. Took a lot of self-control to not eat the entire batch in one sitting. Thank you!

[@cherylaguilar3583]

Is wholemeal the same as whole wheat?

[@cookingwithplants]

Cheryl Aguilar Yes :-)

[@airyfairycelt]

Any flour? Cannot have wheat so I will try chickpea as I have some, also ground almond too! Vegan gf perfect for me (oh, and no yeast!)

[@kerimarion9537]

try gf oat flour!

[@julabuddha]

+airyfairycelt i made these using a combo of teff and sorghum flour and they turned out awesome!

[@RunningKyleRoy]

I would eat the whole batch. No, seriously, I would! Is there anyway to cut back on the sodium and still make this recipe work? I calculate about 2800mg per batch.

[@cookingwithplants]

+KyleRoy Try halving the salty ingredients or leave the salt out all together if you prefer a lower sodium version :-)

[@tonibaloni12]

what about sugar+baking soda less, and raisins instead of dates?

[@cookingwithplants]

+Tony Eatinsky You would need to test it.

[@sulma8339]

I followed your recipe and they're pretty good but they were more like bready type not so much cookie...any idea why?

[@cookingwithplants]

They are a softer style of cookie. Maybe bake them at a lower heat for a little longer. Also, let them cool down and they will firm up a little.

[@frostflower5555]

What blender is that?

[@marcodonati572]

Yummy!! I know you use volumes for your recipes, but please, shift to weight. Weight doesn't change with temperature or grade of packing (for powders), volume does.

[@cookingwithplants]

Marco Donati I will keep that in mind :-)

[@rawfoodnoob]

You said they were chewy. Do you mean actually chewy gooey? From the video they looked more cake-like.

[@cookingwithplants]

rawfoodnoob They are gooey when they are warm. Are a bit cake like... soft cookie :-)

[@rawfoodnoob]

CookingWithPlants I made these today. They are good but different. I also used your waffle recipe to make pancakes this morning. That worked great. All these years I can't believe I bought unhealthy batter when all it took was three simple ingredients. I'm so glad I discovered your channel. Please do a vegan meatloaf recipe video with beans or lentils. Thanks!

[@cookingwithplants]

rawfoodnoob I'll add the bean loaf to the list :-)

[@katzensindweich3505]

and again :-)

[@kamidikohli2440]

I can't hear you such low voice and different accent, I wish I could follow
