Ingredients
  

  • 1½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp instant espresso powder
  • ½ cup coconut oil solid
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup plant-based milk like almond or oat
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup chopped vegan dark chocolate or chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment. You're officially baking, babe.
  • In one bowl, whisk flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, salt, and espresso powder. Set aside like a responsible adult.
  • In another bowl, beat coconut oil and brown sugar until fluffy—channel your inner domestic goddess.
  • Add milk and vanilla, mix well. Think of it like building flavor, not patience.
  • Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet. Stir until a thick, chocolatey dough forms. No licking yet.
  • Fold in chocolate chunks. Yes, fold like you do laundry, but actually finish this one.
  • Scoop dough onto the sheet, leaving space—they expand like your weekend plans.
  • Bake for 11–12 minutes until edges are set but centers look slightly underdone. Trust the process.
  • Cool on the sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a rack. Or just eat one hot—we won't judge.
  • Devour with coffee, oat milk, or unbothered confidence.

💡 Extra Tips for Fabulous Flavor

  • Chill the dough for 20 minutes if you want thicker, bakery-style cookies.
  • Sprinkle with flaky salt before baking for that “I’m fancy” energy.
  • Use two kinds of chocolate for extra depth—because we love drama.
  • Store in an airtight container unless you plan to eat them all today (which, fair).
  • Pair with espresso for the full experience or wine if it’s been that kind of week.
