These classic vegan chocolate chip cookies have crispy edges, a soft chewy center and hot fudge sauce in the middle! These cookies are as perfect as vegan cookies get! You'll need a few basic ingredients to make them. No uncommon ingredients and no egg-replacers!Cookie Ingredients¾ cup (140g) brown sugar⅓ cup (75g) vegan butter, melted but room temperature (We recommend Becel Plant-based Unsalted Brick or Earth Balance Vegan Cooking & Baking Sticks)3 tablespoons (45g) Nature’s Charm Evaporated Coconut Milk1 teaspoon vanilla extract (We recommend Vanilla Blossom Pure Vanilla Extract)1 ¼ cups (155g) all-purpose plain flour¼ teaspoon baking sodaPinch of any good quality salt, if using unsalted butter1 cup (100g) roughly chopped vegan chocolate or chocolate chips (We recommend Cuisine Camino Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips)Fudge Filling Ingredients⅓ cup (80g) Nature’s Charm Chocolate Fudge Sauce2 tablespoons (20g) roughly chopped vegan chocolate or chocolate chips (We recommend Cuisine Camino Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips)To make the fudge filling (day before or a couple of hours beforehand):Add both ingredients to a small saucepan over low heat and mix until combined. Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe bowl/container and freeze for at least 1 hour. The mixture should thicken up and be almost scoopable.To make the vegan chocolate chip cookies:Add the sugar, melted butter and milk to a medium-size mixing bowl. Mix until combined. Add the flour and baking soda and mix until combined. Fold through the chocolate chips.To shape the cookies:Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).Using a small ice cream scoop, scoop the cookie dough. Press your finger into the middle of the dough and spoon/pour the fudge filling inside.Get a little extra cookie dough and press it on top of your cookie to cover the filling. Smooth the edges so the filling doesn't escape. If desired, carefully roll the cookie dough ball in between your hands to smooth out the shape. Baking the cookies:Arrange the cookie dough balls/scoops on two lined baking trays with around 5 cm (2 inches) between each cookie.Bake in the oven for around 10-12 minutes or until the cookies are slightly golden brown. When you take them out of the oven, they will continue baking!Enjoy the cookies warm or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.... although they never last that long in our house!Courtesy of @rainbownourishments!
