My chinni wanted chocolate chip cookies and my DH wanted coconut ones. The happy compromise? My favorite vegan chocolate chip cookies with a coconutty twist. :)
1 C Whole Wheat Flour
1 C All Purpose Flour
1 T Baking Powder
1 t Pure Vanilla Extract (if you don't have the pure kind, then don't bother using it at all)
1/2 C Agave Nectar
3/4 C Chopped Pecans
1 C Vegan Dark Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
1 C Cold Ricemilk or Water
Dessicated Coconut Powder
Preheat oven to 180C/350F
Spread as much coconut powder as you like on a small plate.
Put the rest of dry ingredients (except pecans and chocolate chips) in a large bowl and mix. Make a deep well in the center. Pour the wet ingredients into the hole and mix everything. Stir in the pecans and chocolate chips.
Form cookie dough into little balls and roll them around in the coconut powder and press gently. Place on cookie sheets 1-2 inches apart.
Bake for 20 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes on the sheet. Transfer to cooling rack.
Serve hot or cold. Enjoy! :)
These cookies were so yum that the Veganosaurus monsters loved them too! They had a big munching party and there was plenty to go around. They ate and they ate and they ate and in the end they fell over backwards, patted their tummies and fell into a deep, chocolate-y, comatose sleep.
Yum, this looks great!! <3 your little guys on the plate, how sweet!
ReplyDeleteLOL.. fell over backwards??!! I can just picture them.. I'll be falling over too if I ate these..they look yum!
ReplyDeleteThose cookies are adorable!
ReplyDeleteWhere do you get some of these things? Agave nectar? Rice milk? Nutritional yeast?
ReplyDeleteKamini, rice milk is something you can make at home just look up online for a recipe, it's very simple. Agave nectar and nutritional yeast are not easily available in India though. You can order them online from the US through ebay. I've also heard that a store called Bon Apetit at Pondicherry carries them so you can do a google search for their contact details and e-mail them if you like.
