Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup packed light brown sugar
  • ⅓ cup neutral oil
  • ¼ cup unsweetened non-dairy milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup vegan chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar (optional)

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk oil, milk, vanilla, and vinegar if using. Pour into dry ingredients and stir until a thick dough forms.
  3. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  4. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until edges are set and tops crackled.
  5. Cool on the sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.

Notes

The dough may seem a little soft, but it will firm up as it bakes. If you don’t have a wire rack, let the cookies cool completely on the baking sheet; they’ll just take a bit longer to set. For the deepest chocolate flavor, use Dutch-process cocoa powder.
