Author: Holly
Recipe type: Dessert
Cuisine: American
Serves: 3 dozen large cookies
Ingredients
- 1½ cups dairy-free buttery sticks
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup tofu (firm or soft) (see post above for soy-free options)
- 1½ teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1½ teaspoons water
- 3¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 1½ teaspoons baking soda
- 1½ teaspoons salt
- 3 cups dairy-free semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375ºF and grease a cookie sheet or line it with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- In a food processor or mixer, blend the buttery sticks, sugars, tofu, vanilla, and water until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir in the wet mixture into these dry ingredients until well-combined. The batter should be somewhat sticky, not dry. If it's too dry, add just a little more water. Fold in the chocolate chips and nuts (if using).
- Scoop the dough by the heaping tablespoon onto the prepared cookie sheet. Bake for about 9 minutes, or until the cookies are just turning golden brown.
- Let cool on the cookie sheet for a few minutes, then carefully remove the cookies to a wire rack to finish cooling.
- Repeat steps 4 and 5 with the remaining dough (I prefer to bake 1 sheet at a time).
