Super Yum Chocolate Chip Cookies (Vegan!)

These little honeys will knock your socks off!  Well maybe not literally but I bet you find yourself saying, "holy moly this is a good cookie!" after your first bite.  The best part is they're health- and animal-friendly (a.k.a. vegan)

use vegan versions

• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 1/2 cup vanilla coconut milk (found in dairy section next to refrigerated soy milk)
• 1 cup dark brown sugar
• 1/2 cup white sugar
• 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
• 4 teaspoons vanilla
• 2 cups all purpose flour 
• 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

preheat oven to 300 degrees F.  Whisk together applesauce, oil, coconut milk and vanilla extract.  Fork together dry ingredients then mix with wet.  Fold in chocolate chips.  On an airbake cookie sheet drop dough in mounded tablespoon scoops 3" apart.  Bake 15-20 minutes for soft cookies.

Cool on pan 2-3 minutes then move to rack to cool completely.  I like them best with coffee for breakfast.

Happy eating!
