You guys definitely don’t need any more cookie recipes from me…and on that note, today I’m sharing a cookie recipe!
Cookies are too delicious and versatile to only have a small handful of recipes, and this particular recipe for Dairy Free Chocolate Chip Coconut Cranberry Cookies is too good not to share.
This recipe is dairy free, as there is no butter, margarine or milk present, and (with the use of a flax egg or two) could likely be made completely vegan with ease. So if you’re a lifelong cruelty-free eater, or still a brave “Veganuary” soldier, feel free to try it out and let me know how it goes.
These are the first cookies I’ve ever made without using butter, and initially I was concerned that without that classic comforting buttery flavour, this bake wouldn’t be up to the usual standard. How wrong I was. The coconut oil helped these cookies hold their shape better than butter generally would, and a similar fat content means that there is no lack of flavour. The oil also helps to provide a gorgeously crisp edge to these cookies, the deliberate kind rather than that of an over-baking mistake (I speak from experience) While also allowing the dreamily dense and chewy centre that you want from a chocolate chip cookie. Hooray for successful kitchen experimentation!
A mouthful in more ways than one, these Dairy Free Chocolate Chip Coconut Cranberry Cookies are not a cookie to be overlooked. Crisp edges, give way to that divinely soft and chewy centre. Flakes of coconut, sweet yet tangy cranberries and melting dark chocolate chips are all bursting from these bakery style cookies.
I used cranberries simply because I had some leftover from the busy Christmas baking period, but feel free to swap them out for cherries, dates, almonds, pecans, or just more chocolate chips. The dark chocolate chips I use are incidentally dairy free, but make sure to check if yours are too if dairy is a concern for you or anyone that will be eating these cookies.
These cookies would be equally delicious using white chocolate chips, or any chopped up chunks of whatever kind of chocolate you have lying around!
