Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup Cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Vegan butter
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar
• 0.25 cup Cane sugar
• 3 tablespoons Unsweetened plant-based milk (e.g., almond or oat milk)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup Hazelnuts, chopped
• 0.25 cup Vegan chocolate chips

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream together the vegan butter, brown sugar, and cane sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.

Step 4

Add the plant-based milk and vanilla extract to the creamed sugar mixture, and mix until fully incorporated.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a dough forms.

Step 6

Fold in the chopped hazelnuts and vegan chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon.

Step 7

Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, portion out the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing the cookies about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are set and the centers appear slightly underbaked—they will firm up as they cool.

Step 9

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Serve and enjoy your homemade vegan hazelnut cocoa cookies with a glass of plant-based milk or a cup of coffee!
