Description

No-bake vegan cookies that are super easy to whip up and taste just like the classic chocolate treat!


Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp plant-based butter (42 g)
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar (150 g)
  • ⅓ cup almond milk (78 mL)
  • 3 tbsp cocoa powder (18 g)
  • ½ cup creamy salted peanut butter (125 g)
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 cups quick-cooking oats (188 g)

Instructions

  1. Prepare: Line a baking sheet with wax or parchment paper and set aside.
  2. Melt Butter: In a medium or large saucepan over medium heat, melt the vegan butter.
  3. Add Sugar, Milk and Cocoa Powder: Once it is melted, whisk in the granulated sugar, almond milk, and cocoa powder until well combined. Bring to a boil and let simmer 1:30-2 minutes then remove from heat. Note: It’s important to let the mixture boil for long enough so your cookies set properly. It’s suggested to set a timer for 2 minutes as soon as the mixture comes to a boil. Remove it from the heat after simmering for at least 90 seconds.
  4. Mix in Peanut Butter and Vanilla: Mix in the peanut butter and vanilla extract until well combined.
  5. Stir in Oats: Then, mix in the oats until the mixture is uniform.
  6. Form Cookies and Chill: Scoop the mixture into 1 tbsp drops and place on the lined baking sheet. Let chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour to firm up. 

Notes

Store leftover cookies in the fridge for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
