Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
  • 2.5 tablespoons water
  • 1/2 cup vegan butter softened to room temperature
  • 1 1/4 cups brown sugar lightly packed
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/4 cups non-dairy chocolate chips or chunks

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
  • In a small bowl, mix the ground flaxseed and water. Set aside for a few minutes to form your flax egg.
  • In a large bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to beat the softened vegan butter and brown sugar until creamy, about 1–2 minutes.
  • Add the vanilla extract and the flax egg, mixing until well combined.
  • Stop the mixer and add the flour. Sprinkle the cornstarch, baking soda, and salt over the flour. Mix on low speed just until the dough forms.
  • Gently fold in the non-dairy chocolate chips or chunks.
  • Roll the dough into balls using about 1–2 tablespoons per cookie. Place them on the prepared sheets, leaving space in between.
  • Bake for 10 minutes (12 minutes for larger cookies), until the edges are slightly golden. Avoid overbaking to keep them chewy.
  • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.
