Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies

October 29, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 10 Comments

Hi Everyone!

With yesterday’s news of me being Lactose Intolerant, I now have to experiment with my cooking and baking.   I thought I would test out and make my traditional homemade chocolate chip cookies, but since I had to use Earth Balance Butter and dairy free chocolate chips, I thought why not just go vegan on this recipe?  I can have eggs, but what the heck, let’s try something new and see how it turns out.  I’ll let you judge by the picture.
Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies
What do you think? I have to tell you I am pretty proud of these cookies. They do taste like a chocolate chip cookie. You would never know that it doesn’t contain any dairy or eggs. They are crisp on the edges and soft in the middle. To me that is the perfect chocolate chip cookie. They even look professional, better than the chocolate chip cookies that I have made in the past!!
Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies
I was sadden by the fact that I can’t have chocolate chips anymore, well I think I can have dark chocolate chips and that’s nice but I really like semi-sweet chips. I was at Whole Foods and I found Enjoy Life Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips. I thought, I’ll try them, but they won’t be the same. I was wrong! They taste amazing, just like chocolate chips. I looked at the ingredients and all they are made of is evaporated cane juice, natural chocolate liquor (Non-Alcoholic) and non-dairy cocoa butter. Wow! That is way healthier than regular chocolate chips I normally get. They were a little pricey at Whole Foods, but I found them online at several places a lot cheaper. You can bet I will be ordering a bunch for holiday baking!
Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies
For the egg I made a Flax Egg. This was a first for me. I used 1 tablespoon of ground flax-seed and three tablespoons of water. Whisk together and let it sit for 15 minutes. Hmmmm, it worked! That’s also healthier than normal eggs! You have fewer calories and no cholesterol and added protein and fiber. Not that you get a lot of that since your making 60 cookies.
Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies
The rest of the ingredients are the same as my traditional chocolate chip cookies. As for my dairy readers, I also added in the recipe ingredients you can use to make your cookies. My Husband was not thrilled when I said I am making vegan chocolate chip cookies, but after one bite he said you couldn’t tell. I couldn’t tell!! And let me tell you I am chocolate chip cookie freak. Kind of wish I didn’t make these because now I know how easy and yummy they taste, I’ll be making these a lot!!!
Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies
Yes you can guess I am pretty stoked at these cookies! They are also pretty low-calorie for chocolate chip cookies. They come in at 92 calories a cookie. I think that’s pretty good for a chocolate chip cookie. After I made my batch of cookies, I let them cool and stored them in the freezer. To thaw out, just leave them on your counter for a few minutes. Perfect cookie!!

Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies
So am I going vegan? No! But I do have fun experimenting and trying different things in the kitchen. I just love when it turns out and no one knows it’s healthy or vegan. I get that warm, fuzzy feeling inside knowing I am serving my friends and family a healthy goodie!!
Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies

Well I hope you like today’s recipe. I really stepped out of my comfort zone with this one, and I am glad I did. I really did come up with a perfect chocolate chip cookie.

Do you like to experiment with different recipes and trying out new things? I really do think that’s what makes cooking fun. So many different ways to make something. So from here on out, my Husband will be getting vegan chocolate chip cookies in his lunch. lol I have to giggle because my Husband supports my dairy free life, but he said he is not eating vegan. Sorry Honey, but you are on this one!!

Have a great day!


Toodles,

Jennifer

      The stats are listed in the recipe. They come in at under 100 calories. The calories will be just about the same for regular cookies.

Hi Everyone! Summer sure came. It was 106 yesterda Hi Everyone! Summer sure came. It was 106 yesterday and today cooler at 103. Holy Moly! I think I could fry an egg outside.

I’m still working in my dining room and I wanted to share my new reversible sign that I got from @krumpetshomedecor. It’s a beautiful 24x9 sign that I thought it would be perfect in my dining room. 
🌸
I love sitting around the table with friends and family and tell stories, laugh, play games and have a good time. I thought the side of the sign that says “Enjoy Every Moment” was perfect.
🌸
The sign is the Krumpets Home Decor deal of the week and you get an additional 10% off with code: PBANDP. Link in my bio.

One of the things I added was my new bedding that I got from @lushdecorhome. Let me tell you, it is so luxurious. This is the 3 piece Belgian Flax Linen Rich Cotton Blend Bedspread. It is so soft and gets softer with each wash. 
💕
I have a tall bed and the ruffles just reaches the floor. The bedding is filled with cotton that gives the bedspread such a comfy feel. The bedspread is perfect for the summer, as it is lightweight, but warm enough to keep you cozy in the winter. The set comes with two pillow shams and the bedspread. It also comes in 4 colors. 
💕
I love my new bedding, it’s so feminine and simply beautiful. I couldn’t be happier. Swipe the photo to see how happy Sully is on the bedding.

Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime ta Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime tablescape with @JCPenney + #AllAtJCP + #sponsored +#ShoppingIsBack but you know how I love still photos better. I think you can really see the details of the decor.

💛

I am loving how simple, fresh and light my tablescape feels. It’s the perfect look I was going for. When the idea came for creating a tablescape, I was unclear of what direction I was going for until I shopped at JCPenney. I walked around the decor department and was completely inspired. They had so many styles and colors that would inspire you too.

💛

I saved a highlight of my shopping trip to JCPenney. You must check it out. I’ll be honest, I was blown away by the styles, quality and prices of there store. I will be shopping there quite frequently and you know I will take you along my journey.

💛

What is the style of your home?

💛

PS. Everything on my table is from JCPenney and it is the Linden Street Collection.

Happy Thursday! This week is just flying by, which Happy Thursday! This week is just flying by, which is okay by me. Yesterday I worked on my bedroom and it feels so good having a clean bedroom. It was a chore that I needed to get done.
🐾
My inspiration was my new pillows that I got from @downlitebedding. The name of the pillow says it all “Ahhhhhmazing™ down alternative pillow” and they are amazing.
🐾
The pillows are so soft, plush and are hypoallergenic. They are easily molded so you position your neck, head and arms. The pillows are also washable and OEKO-TEX® Certified Textiles Are Certified Free Of Harmful Chemicals. 
🐾
I’ll be honest, Downlite Bedding are the only pillows that I sleep with. They are fabulous and will last for years. I highly recommend them. They won’t disappoint you. Downlite Bedding was nice enough to give my followers a 20% off discount code to there shop: DYGEN20.

Hello! I have to tell you that I love summer. It’s my favorite season. I love the sun, hot weather, shirts and flip flops. I could just spend all day outside.
🌻
One of my favorite things to do in the summer besides gardening is going to the Farmers Market. There is something about the atmosphere with people walking around with bags in hand, the smell of kettle corn and everyone is so happy. 
🌻
Besides the atmosphere, you can’t beat the freshly grown produce. It’s mind blowing how different it tastes, then what you get in the store. You almost forget what a strawberry is suppose to taste like until have it at the Farmers Market. Plus you are supporting your community. It’s a good feeling all around. 
🌻
I highly recommend going to the Farmers Market and pick up so corn. Soooooo good!! Stock up on your fruits and veggies and freeze it for winter.

I’m sharing with you my last photo of my peonies. I’m so sad that they didn’t last. I got about 6 days from them. I guess that’s means I need to go to Trader Joe’s and get more before peony season is over.

Do you have any summer vacation scheduled this year?

Happy Monday!! It’s back to work for me. I’ll Happy Monday!! It’s back to work for me. I’ll be counting down to my next vacation, which will be the week of the 4th of July. I will tell you, it felt so nice not having any plans and doing work in the garden.
🌻
This weekend I finally made it to the Farmers Market and I picked up these amazing sunflowers. They are such a happy flower. 
🌻
When I got them, I couldn’t resist doing a flowers in the sink photo. I haven’t done one of these since Fall. Now I may have to go back to the Farmers Market next weekend because they had so many flowers and most were only $4.00 a bundle.

Happy Friday! My vacation is officially over and I Happy Friday! My vacation is officially over and I pretty much spent the whole week working in my garden, so I apologize for all the flower photos. 
🌸
This is a view of my fenced in garden. The flowers on the left are zinnias, and next to them is beardtongue and in the background, butterfly bush.  In about a month or so, this background will pop with lots of orange from my Mexican sunflower and yellow from the black eyed susan. I just hope my black eyed susan’s make it. They are struggling. 
🌸
I have to say I have been enjoying working in the garden. It’s therapy to me. It just makes me feel good to sit back and see all your hard work start to bloom. I can’t wait to see what the garden looks like a month.
🌸
What do you like to do that you consider your therapy?
