Vegan Double Chocolate Kahlua Cookies - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup canola oil
1 1/2 cups sugar
4 teaspoons flax seeds (ground)
1/4 cup soymilk (I use SILK Creamer, vanilla or hazelnut)
1/4 cup Kahlua (coffee liqueur)
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
3/4 cup semisweet vegan chocolate chips
3/4 cup walnuts, toasted and chopped (optional)

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350.
In a large bowl, mix sugar and oil. Add flaxseeds, soy (creamer or milk), vanilla, almond extract, and mix well.
In a separate bowl, sift together flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt.
Fold the dry ingredients into the wet a 1/4 cup at a time until dough forms. Add chocolate and walnuts (optional), best to use your hands for even distribution.
Roll dough into 1-inch balls and flatten into disks. Place the disks 1-inch apart on a lined cookie sheet.
Bake for 10 minutes, remove from oven and let cool for about 5 minutes on the cookie sheet before transferring them to a wire rack or countertop to cool completely.
ENJOY!
