Ingredients

Units Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon ground flaxseeds
  • 2.5 tablespoons water
  • 1/2 cup vegan butter (softened to room temperature)
  • 1 1/4 cups light brown sugar (lightly packed)
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/4 cups non-dairy chocolate chips
  • optional vegan chocolate frosting, vanilla frosting, ice cream or whipped topping
  • more chocolate chips for decorating the top

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and grease a 9-inch cake pan (I like to use a springform pan for easy release, a pie dish works as well.) Set aside.
  2. Make Flax Egg: Mix the ground flaxseed and water in a small bowl and set aside to make your flax egg.
  3. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large bowl using a handheld mixer or a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, beat the softened vegan butter and brown sugar for 1-2 minutes until creamy.
  4. Add Flavor and Flax Egg: Add the vanilla and the flax egg and mix to combine.
  5. Add Dry Ingredients: Next, stop the mixer and add the flour. Sprinkle the cornstarch, baking soda and salt on top of the flour. Turn the mixer on low speed, and mix until just combined.
  6. Incorporate Chocolate Chips: Add in the chocolate chips to incorporate, either by hand or using the mixer.
  7. Bake: Press the cookie dough evenly into the prepared pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until lightly golden brown. Let the cake cool completely if possible. You can serve it warm if you’d prefer.
  8. Optional Toppings: If desired, pipe some frosting around the sides of the cookie cake. Alternatively, serve with vegan vanilla ice cream or coconut whipped cream. Top with more chocolate chips and serve.

Notes

  • For easy release, using a springform pan is recommended but a pie dish can work as well.
  • Letting the cake cool completely is preferred but it can be served warm.
  • Optional toppings include vegan chocolate or vanilla frosting, ice cream, or whipped topping for extra indulgence.
