Equipment

  • oven
  • hand mixer

Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup vegan butter (room temperature)
  • 1 cup sugar of your choice*
  • 1 flax egg (1 tbsp ground flax +2 1/2 tbsp warm water)
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • ¼ cup Natura Oat Milk (room temperature)
  • cups all purpose flour (or flour of your choice!)
  • ½ cup almond flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp cardamom
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ cup vegan white chocolate chips
  • ½ cup dark chocolate chips
  • ½ cup macadamia nuts (roughly chopped)

Instructions
 

  • Prepare flax egg by whisking ground flax and warm water together. Set aside to gel for 10 minutes. Place room temperature butter into the bowl of a standing mixer with the paddle attachment (can be hand mixed OR electric hand mixed).
  • Whip butter for 30 seconds, then add sugar, vanilla and flax egg. Beat again until mixture is light and fluffy. Finally add in the milk and beat again.
  • In a separate bowl whisk together dry ingredients. Slowly add dry to wet until well incorporated. Scrape down sides as needed. Add in both chocolate chips and macadamia nuts and mix well to combine.
  • Place the mixing bowl in the fridge while the oven preheats.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place parchment paper down on 2 baking sheets.
  • Use an ice cream scoop to equally measure out batter, leaving 2 inches of space between cookies as they will spread. Place in the oven for 7 minutes.
  • Remove cookies from the oven and firmly bang cookie sheets on the counter or stove top. This will help cookies to “fall” creating a ripple effect for the cookies. Place back in the oven for an additional 7-8 minutes until cookies are golden brown.
  • Transfer cookies to a cooling rack and when ready to eat, dunk in a glass of Natura Oat Milk!

Notes

I used coconut sugar but monk fruit sweetener, date sugar, brown sugar or regular sugar would work great too!
