Vegan Chocolate Chip Cream Cheese Cookies
Kayla Castle • July 6, 2021
Light, airy and creamy vegan cookies are a must! I used DF cream cheese, but of course you can easily swap for regular cream cheese. These cookies are ready fast, only need to pop in fridge for 10-minutes then get to baking. Allergy-friendly cookies without refined, sugar/flour, eggs, dairy or butter. To keep recipe DF, make sure to use DF cream cheese and chocolate chips!

Recipe
Ingredients:
• 1 cup Oat flour
• 1/3 cup coconut sugar
• 2.5 tablespoon coconut oil, melted
• Pinch of salt
• ½ teaspoon baking powder
• ¼ cup cream cheese, softened to room temp
• ¼ cup milk, I used unsweetened almond milk
• 1/3 cup chocolate chips
Method:
1. In a medium bowl combine the cream cheese, melted coconut oil and coconut sugar.
2. Slowly alternate adding in the oat flour and milk. The batter will be on the thick side, this is good. Next stir in the salt and baking powder.
3. Lastly fold in the chocolate chips. Pop in fridge while you preheat oven to 350F.
4. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Using a cookie scoop form about ~1 tablespoon cookie dough ball, space out on parchment paper lined pan.
5. Bake for 9-11 minutes, till done. Let cool

You know when you eat something sweet and then later in the day you start feeling sluggish and tired? That sugar crash feeling is from a sharp rise in blood sugar levels followed by a decline. Having consistent blood sugar levels provides us with a consistent energy boost. By structuring our meals in a balanced pattern, you will be less likely to experience a “sugar crash”.
