Our best vegan chocolate chip cookies have a secret ingredient that keeps them moist and chewy for days. Okay, we’ll tell you: It’s cola.
Developing a vegan chocolate chip cookie that hits all the marks was no easy feat. We were on a mission to create a crispy-edged and chewy cookie that would be irrefutably delicious. The result is a recipe you’ll turn to over and over—even if you’re not vegan. Here’s how we did it: We swapped traditional butter for a combination of neutral oil and olive oil to lend subtle floral notes without being overpowering. Baking with oil also results in a cookie that stays soft and moist for several days.
You can use standard commercial sugars in their place if desired. There is one rather unexpected ingredient—Coca-Cola. That might seem strange, but it’s rooted in culinary merit. The soda gives the cookies a rich caramel-like flavor that deepens the brown sugar notes and adds a welcome complexity. While highly encouraged, you can swap it out for water and still end up with a delightful cookie. Per usual, we prefer a chopped bar of chocolate over chips for optimal gooey pools.
