Ingredients
  

For the Cookie Dough:

  • 1¼ cups rolled oats
  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ¼ tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ cup vegan butter softened
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp flaxseed meal + 2½ tbsp water flax egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup vegan chocolate chips
  • ½ tsp instant espresso powder

For the Coffee Cream Filling:

  • ½ cup vegan cream cheese
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp espresso powder
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions
 

  • Mix flaxseed and water. Let it sit like that friend who’s always waiting for a text back.
  • Combine oats, flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon in a bowl.
  • In another bowl, cream vegan butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and sassy.
  • Add the flax egg, espresso powder, and vanilla. Whisk until your arm questions your life choices.
  • Stir in the dry ingredients, then fold in chocolate chips like you’re hiding secrets.
  • Chill dough for 20 minutes if you want thicker cookies (or have commitment issues).
  • Meanwhile, mix all the filling ingredients until creamy and divine.
  • Scoop cookie dough into small balls, flatten, and add 1 tsp coffee cream in the center.
  • Cover with another dough disk and seal like it’s gossip.
  • Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 12 minutes or until golden around the edges.
  • Cool slightly before devouring (or not—you’re an adult).
