Ingredients

  • ¾ cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (114 grams)
  • teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • 5 tablespoons Country Crock Plant Butter, Almond Oil type (70 grams)
  • ¼ cup sugar (50 grams)
  • ¼ cup coconut sugar (40 grams)
  • ½ tablespoon flaxseed meal mixed with 1 T. water
  • ¾ teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 6 ounces chocolate chips (170 grams)
  • Handful of untoasted walnuts broken up
  • Sea Salt or pretzel salt

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 if you plan on baking right away.
  • Mix together flour, salt and baking soda. Set aside
  • With a spoon, mash together the Country Crock plant butter, cane sugar and coconut sugar until blended.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the flaxseed with 1 tablespoon water to combine. Add the flax and the vanilla and stir until blended, then stir in the flour mixture. Add the chocolate chips and chunks last.
  • Scoop the dough into 4 large mounds, each weighing a little more than 100 grams. This really depends on how generous you were with the chocolate
  • Time to bake! I baked one cookie right away (the one in the photo) and am chilling the rest of the dough. Put the cookie dough mound (or all of them) on a parchment lined baking sheet and press down to around ½ inch thick (like in the picture). Sprinkle with some pretzel salt or sea salt. Bake for 18 to 21 minutes. I think my cookie was done in about 19 minutes. Chilled dough might take a full 21.
  • Also, when you suspect the cookies are close to being ready, pull from the oven and squish the edges inward nudging the cookies into neat circle. a
  • Allow the cookie (or cookies) to cool, then put in the freeze long enough to set the chocolate. Bring back to room temperature before serving.
