Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies are a favorite in any household. We all need that big, soft, chewy cookie that reminds of of our childhood.
One of the most popular cookies in any house is chocolate chip. That means in my house too so I thought I’d better make really good basic Chocolate Chip Cookies that are vegan.
It seems like I always try to fancy them up with banana or date or peppermint or a multitude of other goodies but, hey, we all need that big, soft, chewy cookie that reminds of of our childhood – – – so here we go!

Great with almond milk. TO FREEZE: You may freeze them in any of the methods shown in my article How to Prepare Food for the Freezer.
They defrost quickly so it really doesn't take any planning. Just put them on a plate for an hour or so and enjoy.

These were perfect. Simple, fast and so good. They are goe now but we really enjoyed them.
Thank you so much Lisa! Yes, the flax seed meal mixture stands in for one egg and goes in with the blended sugar mixture. Enjoy!
Hi, just a clarification, the flax seed meal that had thickened goes in with the blended sugar butter mixture, correct? That stands in for my eggs, right? Will be making today I hope. Looks so yummy and with cold, cold glass of milk…. YUM-YYYYY!!
Thanks and you are so welcome. Glad you are there Jen.
