Chocolate-Chocolate Chip Cookies

These cookies are dense, rich, and chocolatey. They are also chewy and oh so satisfying when you have a chocolate craving.

If your chocolate craving is serious, than go ahead and lick the bowl. With vegan baking there are no worries about salmonella from raw eggs, so you can indulge in the batter worry-free.

Chocolate-Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients:

2 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup cocoa powder
3/4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt

1/2 cup soy milk
1 tsp apple cider vinegar

1/2 cup vegan margarine
1 cup natural sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup coffee

2/3 cup chocolate chips

Directions:

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.

Sift the dry ingredients into a bowl and set aside. Mix the soy milk with the vinegar and let sit to curdle.

Cream the margarine with the sugar until it is light and fluffy (electric beaters work well here). This is easiest if the margarine is at room temperature before you start. Then add the vanilla, and the curdled milk and blend again. Add the coffee to the wet ingredients and stir it in. Dump the dry mix into the wet and stir until it is just mixed. Finally, add the chocolate chips and mix just enough to distribute them.

Drop by the spoonful onto a greased cookie sheet. Bake for 8 minutes for a chewy cookie.

For 24 cookies. Nutritional information from caloriecount.about.com
