Name of Recipe: Chocolate Chip Cookies (Vegan)
(adapted from Vegan with a Vengeance by Isa Chandra Moskowitz)
Number of People: Makes 3 dozen, give or take
Ingredients:
250g vegan margarine, at room temperature (Nuttelex is great, if you're in Australia)
220g sugar
1 Tbs molasses
2 tsp vanilla extract
400g plain flour
1 tsp bicarb soda
1 tsp salt
230g vegan chocolate chips
Preparation:
1. Preheat oven to 180C.
2. Place margarine, sugar, molasses and vanilla in TM bowl. Cream for 1 minute, speed 6.
3. Add flour, bicarb soda and salt. Mix for 1 min 30 secs on Interval speed.
4. Add chocolate chips and mix for 20 seconds, Reverse speed 3.
5. Drop heaped teaspoonfuls onto ungreased baking tray.
6. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until slightly browned. Let cool on tray for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool (though they are delicious eaten warm!)
Tips/Hints:
I sometimes freeze the dough. Roll into balls and snap freeze, then store in a ziplock bag. When you want fresh baked cookies, take out as many balls as you need and put straight onto baking trays. Add 2-5 mins to the baking time. This is great when you don't need 3 dozen cookies all at once!
I also like to mix some of the dough through ice-cream - delicious!

where do you get vegan chocolate chips? (i'm guessing they are dairy free)
-
You can buy vegan white chocolate chips through The Cruelty Free Shop - http://crueltyfreeshop.com.au/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=3_18_72&products_id=560
I prefer mine with dark chocolate, so I either just use regular dark choc chips - Cadbury used to be dairy free, now they are not :( Or get a vegan block of dark chocolate and chop it up, so they become Chocolate Chunk Cookies instead.

Lindt Chocolate is also Dairy Free.

Are you having us on????? We've eaten all ours so I can't go and have a look on the wrapping. Perhaps I should buy some more.
