Ingredients
  • ½ cup (110g) vegan butter, room temperature
  • ½ cup (120g) granulated sugar
  • ½ cup (110g) brown sugar, packed
  • ¼ cup almond milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract, optional
  • 1 ½ (190g) cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup (50g) cocoa powder, unsweetened
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (170g) vegan dark chocolate chips or a chopped chocolate bar
  • ½ cup chopped pistachios
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 175C (350F) and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.

  4. Add the dry ingredients, flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt to the bowl.

  5. Fold in the chocolate chips and roughly chopped pistachios.

  6. Scoop out about 2 tablespoons of dough with a cookie/ ice cream scooper. Place them at least 2 inches apart because they will spread in the oven. Top the cooke dough balls with optional extra chocolate chips and pistachios before baking.

  8. Let the cookies cool down for 10 min then move them to a cooling rack to cool down completely.
