<\/p>\n We\u2019re no strangers to chocolate chip cookies (exhibits A<\/a>, B<\/a>, C<\/a>, D<\/a><\/strong>, and E<\/a>), but we were missing a more classic<\/em><\/strong> version of this timeless treat. Not anymore! Meet decadent vegan and gluten-free<\/strong> chocolate chip cookies with chewy, tender centers<\/strong> and crispy edges<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n Made in 1 bowl<\/strong> with just 8 ingredients<\/strong> and a quick chill time, these buttery, caramelly cookies will satisfy your cookie craving in no time! Let us show you how it\u2019s done!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n These cookies begin with the wet ingredients: flax egg<\/a> for binding, brown sugar and vegan butter for crisp, caramelized edges<\/strong>, and vanilla extract for classic cookie flavor. Creaming the vegan butter and brown sugar with a mixer<\/a> breaks down the sugar and makes them fluffy.<\/p>\n For the dry ingredients, we\u2019ve got salt for flavor and baking powder for a little lift to mimic what eggs would normally do. And for the flour, we kept things simple and classic with our MB Gluten-Free Flour Blend<\/a>. It works beautifully as a 1:1 swap for all-purpose flour (especially in cookies!).<\/p>\n Fold chocolate chips into the dough and set it in the fridge to chill. Chilling the dough ensures the cookies don\u2019t spread too much and helps the flavors develop. After scooping, there\u2019s no flattening needed (the oven does that for you!). Bake until golden on the edges<\/strong>, and it\u2019s cookie time!<\/p>\n We hope you LOVE these vegan and gluten-free chocolate chip cookies! They\u2019re:<\/p>\n Tender in the centers Pair them with a cold glass of dairy-free milk<\/a> or a warm mug of hot cocoa<\/a><\/strong>, or make a cookie sundae with ice cream<\/a> and hot fudge<\/a> (yes, we went there)!<\/p>\n If you try this recipe, let us know!

Stir on low until just mixed. Finally, fold in the chocolate chips with a rubber spatula. Refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (176 C) and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. When the dough is done chilling, use a cookie scoop to scoop out ~18 cookies, keeping them in mound shapes and spacing 2 inches apart (adjust amount of cookies if altering the default number of servings). Bake for 10-14 minutes \u2014 until edges are golden and centers are soft. Option to sprinkle with flaky salt for extra flavor!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n Let them rest on the baking sheet to cool for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to fully cool (or you can eat them right away!). Store in an airtight container for 3-5 days or in the freezer for up to 1 month.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n![\"Bowl](\"https:\/\/minimalistbaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CLASSIC-Chocolate-Chip-Cookies-made-Vegan-and-Gluten-Free-Just-1-bowl-and-8-ingredients-minimalistbaker-recipe-vegan-glutenfree-chocolatechip-10.jpg\")
