How to Make Vegan Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) vegan butter, ½ cup granulated sugar, and ½ cup packed brown sugar for 5 minutes until light and fluffy.
  3. In a blender or food processor, puree 1 (14 ounce) package firm or extra-firm tofu with 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until completely smooth.
  4. Add the pureed tofu to the creamed butter and sugar mixture. Mix until well combined.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  7. Stir in 2 cups vegan chocolate chips.
  8. Scoop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie. Gently flatten slightly with a fork.
  9. Bake for 9-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft. Baking time may vary slightly depending on your oven.
  10. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
