This entire post is inspired by this song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-qTIGg3I5y8 and the amazing Cookie Monster himself. I realized that even though I am a vegetarian, I rarely to ever chose to use a vegan/vegetarian recipe - not really sure why... And since for the next month or so I will be blogging without a kitchen, I felt as though I should begin to expand the kinds of recipes I'm reading.
So upon my searching, I found this recipe that I thought was pretty cool!
In a lot of vegan recipes, you are asked to use ingredients that are expensive, usually never in your kitchen and annoying to find but I believe this recipe is actually worth it! This asks for ingredients you most likely have in your kitchen, and if not then ONE quick trip to the supermarket will have you ready to go.
The ingredients are... (for about 24 cookies)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2/3 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup almond or soy milk (unsweetened)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
3 ounces chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, white sugar, oil, and soy milk for several minutes until well incorporated. The resulting mixture will look like a smooth caramel sauce. Stir in the vanilla.
In a small mixing bowl, mix together the dry ingredients: flour, baking soda, and salt. Gently add and mix the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients in the larger mixing bowl. If the dough is not stiff enough to hold its shape, add more flour one tablespoon at a time, be very careful with how much you're adding because you still want moist cookies. Begin to fold in your chocolate chips!
Your cookies will need to bake for approximately 9 minutes, or until you think they are golden brown along the edges.
I hope your end product looks a little like this...
