Instructions

Preheat oven to 350F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Mix the ground flaxseed and water together in a small bowl to make the flax egg.

In the bowl of a stand mixer, fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the softened vegan butter and brown sugar for 1-2 minutes.

Add the flax egg and vanilla to the mixing bowl, mix until creamy.

Add the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt. Mix until just combined.

Add the dairy free chocolate chips and mix until well distributed.

Using a cookie scoop and tablespoon, roll the cookie dough into balls and place each on the baking sheets.

Bake for 13-15 minutes, until the cookies are lightly golden and the edges are set.

Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Flaxseed Egg Replacement Magic 🌱
Mix ground flaxseed with water (1:3 ratio) and let sit for 5 minutes before adding to create a binding agent that mimics eggs perfectly, ensuring chewy texture without dryness.
Room Temperature Vegan Butter is Key 🧈
Soften your vegan butter to room temperature before creaming with brown sugar—this creates tiny air pockets that give cookies their signature light, fluffy texture.
Chill Dough for Chewier Results ❄️
Refrigerate cookie dough for at least 15 minutes before baking to prevent spreading, resulting in thicker, chewier cookies with crispy golden edges.
Cornstarch Enhances Tenderness 🌟
The cornstarch in this recipe reduces gluten development—don't overmix after adding flour or you'll lose the soft, gooey center that makes these cookies irresistible.
Underbake for Optimal Texture 🍪
Remove cookies when edges are golden but the center still looks slightly underdone; they continue cooking on the hot baking sheet for perfect chewy centers and crispy edges.
