  • Total Time: 1 hour 45 minutes
  • Yield: 24 cookies 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 15-oz can chickpeas, drained and rinsed (reserve aquafaba)
  • 6 tbsp unsalted vegan butter, at room temperature
  • 6 tbsp almond butter
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tbsp aquafaba, liquid from canned chickpeas
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp cornstarch
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp iodized salt
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Drain and rinse the chickpeas, reserving the aquafaba. Blend chickpeas until smooth in a food processor.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat vegan butter, almond butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until lighter in color.

  4. In another bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Combine the dry and wet mixtures, then fold in the chocolate chips. Refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes.
  6. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  7. Scoop dough onto the prepared sheet, spacing them apart. Slightly press each cookie down.
