  • Total Time: 35 Minutes
  • Yield: 2 Dozen 1x

Ingredients

Units Scale
  1. 2/3 cup coconut oil, melted and cooled slightly
  2. 3/4 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
  3. 1/4 cup granulated white cane sugar (or coconut sugar)
  4. 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  5. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  6. 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (use a gluten-free flour blend for gluten-free diets)
  7. 1 teaspoon baking soda
  8. 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  9. 1/2 teaspoon salt
  10. 1 cup chocolate chips (use dairy-free chocolate chips for dairy-free diets)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Prepare two baking sheets by lining them with parchment paper or using silicone baking mats. If you only have one baking sheet, you can bake the cookies in two batches.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth. Then beat in the egg followed by the vanilla extract.
  3. In a separate medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  4. Slowly mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until combined. After that, stir in the chocolate chips.
  5. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  6. Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes or until the edges are lightly browned. The center of the cookies might still be soft, but they’ll set as they cool.
  7. Once baked, let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes. After that, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  1. If you only have one baking sheet, you can bake the cookies in two batches.
  2. Store any leftover cookies in an airtight container on the counter or in the fridge for up to 4-5 days. Or, you can freeze the cookies in a ziptop bag for up to 2 months. Defrost before serving.
