Chocolate chip cookies with coconut oil
Chocolate chip cookies made with coconut oil blend all-purpose flour, muscovado and granulated sugars, egg, and vanilla for a biscuit with caramelized edges and a tender interior. The coconut oil provides a unique texture and subtle flavor contrast to traditional butter-based cookies, while the milk chocolate chips add sweetness and pockets of melted chocolate.
Ingredients
- 2 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour plain flour
- 1 cup coconut oil
- ⅔ cup muscovado sugar dark
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven at Gas 4/ 180° C/ 350° F.
- Using a stand mixer or handheld mixer, whisk the coconut oil, sugars and egg until most of the sugar dissolves.
- Add in the flour, baking soda, salt, and vanilla. Quickly mix the dough and try not to knead it too much.
- Then mix the chocolate chips in.
- Take about a tablespoon of the dough and shape it into a small ball. Flatten it and put it on a baking tray lined with greaseproof paper. Do this until all the dough is finished.
- Bake the cookies for about 15-18 minutes until they look golden caramel.
- Put the cookies on a cooling rack.
Notes
- Keep coconut oil at room temperature for easier mixing.
- For chewier cookies, do not flatten dough balls before baking.
- Avoid overbaking to maintain a soft texture; remove when edges turn golden caramel.
