Hi everyone! Look at these!! ^^^^Chewy Double Chocolate Chip Cookies!!^^^^ yes, they’re vegan, and yes, they’re gluten free too! (All of my recipes for this blog are, BTW, in case your’re new here – and if so, Welcome!!) Ok, so now that we established that, let’s talk chewy, super chocolatety, soft, gooey, dessert type goodness! (I love Kale, and Tofu, and all of the usual yumminess that I post here, but sometimes, you just gotta do some dessert? Am I right?) Actually, the recipe for these cookies came about because I was going to make some of my Carrot Cake Bars to bring to my in-laws’ house for a Father’s Day celebration, and I didn’t want my hubby to be left out. He likes my carrot cake bars, but what he really loves is CHOCOLATE, and plenty of it. If dessert doesn’t involve chocolate, he doesn’t really care about eating dessert. (That’s probably why he wears the same size pants as the day I met him, 25 years ago!) My husband is an awesome Dad, and I have to spoil him on Father’s Day, so I wanted to make something super chocolatety for him! Regular chocolate chip cookies are great, but if you can get even more chocolate in there, well, even better right? So here you go… Chewy Double Chocolate Chip Cookies!!
Because of my food allergies (I’m vegan, and I’m allergic to wheat and all cross reactive grains, millet, and potatoes! – Anyone else out there like me?!), it’s been a really long time since I’ve had a soft, chewy, cookie. I made these with my husband in mind, but I have to admit that they were so amazing that I had to eat some too. They were actually really popular around my house, and I didn’t hear any complaints when I made a 2nd batch after Father’s Day for the blog! My son’s friends loved them too, so these cookies have the teenage, non-vegan, gluten eaters stamp of approval! I’m pretty sure Santa would love these too! Really, how can you go wrong when chocolate is involved? One of the best things about these cookies is that they melt in your mouth. I use oat flour, so there’s no gritty, rice flour texture that some gluten free treats have, and they don’t fall apart either, just wait a few minutes for them to cool before you start removing them from the pan. 😉
