The Best Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies Ever. Need I say any more?

Such a classic treat loved by young and old; even hairy little monsters … hello Cookie Monster!

These guys are different. Ready to find out how?

Let’s do this!!

Chocolate chip cookies: when I first started …

I remember the first time I made allergy free cookies, the whole experience was foreign to me. Developing recipes was challenging because I lacked the experience and the confidence to experiment in the kitchen. I didn’t even know where to start and I was scared to try because I didn’t want to fail. So I relied on tried-and true recipes and prayed the substitutions would work.

Thankfully, those days are far behind me.

Much different story today :)

I looove experimenting and trying different ways to make foods. It’s actually a lot of fun – most of the time, of course. Some days, I don’t want to look at my kitchen… but then again that’s impossible because it’s literally attached to my family room :D I was meant to be there. Munsur says to me: “if you put a bed in here this would be your house. You’re always in here!” Smart 8 year old.

Back to these Chocolate Chip Cookies!

They’re soft, they’re loaded with chocolate, and most importantly, they’re super quick and easy to make.

It’s hard to resist any baked goods, especially chocolate chip cookies. I love dunking them in milk (yes I still do that! Is that silly? And of course dairy-free milk always and forever!), I also love making them for family and friends, and baking them for school bake sales. They’re simply irresistible.

This recipe is going to wow you in the best of ways. Made with healthy fat, dark chocolate, simple everyday ingredients already found in your cupboards. You HAVE to give this recipe a try. Oh my God! Almost forgot the best part ever. There’s no need for your mixer with this recipe!

No mixer required!

Isn’t that amazing!? A chocolate chip recipe where creaming your butter and sugar isn’t required because there’s no butter to cream :D See, I told you you’d be impressed.

The one thing I will totally recommend you do, something that I didn’t care to do beforehand but realized how crazy I had been for not doing it… is to chill your dough before you pop them in the oven.

Allow me explain.

I hate having to wait on anything I’m making. Not while it’s in the oven, but the prep time. I do my best to ensure that my recipes are straightforward, from bowl to your oven in less than an hour.

However. I thought I’d see for myself if chilling cookie dough before baking really makes a different. YES. It. Does!! The taste was the same. The thing that was noticeable was that the chilled cookies retained their shape much better than the ones that went into the oven right away.

See pics below for visual reference. Seeing is truly believing. The image on the left is of the cookie doughs that were baked right away with no chill time, and the one on the right was after the chilling time. Don’t worry, no cookie was hurt in this experiment nor were ANY left behind :D

So, if you don’t care that your cookies will be thinned out then by all means bake right away. They’ll still come out flipping delicious. If however, you want that “instagram cookie” look, then chill.

Don’t worry though, because my chilling time takes 15 minutes instead of the few hours to overnight as most recipes out there suggest, this recipe is no hassle and there’s no patience required.

How?

By using coconut oil and freezing the shaped cookie doughs. I know, pretty genius of me.

What do you mean I’m not the first to think of this??? I beg to differ!
