Forget Wednesday’s cookies
Forget Wednesday’s cookies, because these taste just like the real thing:
Recipe here.
Steven wasn’t 100% pleased with Wednesday’s vegan chocolate chip cookies, so he searched his new favorite website, vegweb.com for ideas. The new recipe he found truly tastes just like the Nestle Toll House ones. The recipes takes a bit of preparation, but is worth it.
The dough looks like chocolate chip cookie dough!
Our cookie sheets sure do look used!
We also tried this “Craving-Cure Cookies” recipe – similar to an oatmeal raisin. I liked them because they are dense and chewy. Steven didn’t like them as much, for that reason.
I had my eyes set on this one, because it was full of raisins.
Our neighbors came over for dinner, so we had a lot of options for dessert:
Banana Muffins, Craving-Cure Cookies, and Chocolate Chip Cookies.
They must have liked the vegan treats, because they took some home! But, there is still enough to share with Diane and E at Saturday’s dinner date in the country.
I think we went a little overboard in our sweets making today. Which is funny, since I gave up sweets for so long for Lent, and didn’t even crave them anymore. Now, since I run so much, I don’t even feel guilty about eating sweets (if in moderation!). In fact, I don’t feel guilty about much that I eat. But I won’t talk about that – I might jinx myself.

I baked a banana chocolate nut bread today – then we had to go out for dinner plans, so we’ve not tried it out yet! (it’s 1:15 am now, I should be asleep!!)
The dough looks totally ummy yummy!! And without raw eggs, it should be safe to eat raw, right?
Thanks for the resource tip: I’ve added the vegweb.com link to my food/recipe bookmarks and will explore once we’re moved… I want to add more veggie better-for-us yet appealing-to-eat foods (plain ol salads, and bells peppers are getting b.o.r.i.n.g!).
The Tollhouse cookies are my FAVORITE! Yay for finding a vegan recipe that tastes like it!
*lynne* – Trying it would have been on my mind during the entire dinner 😉 That is the SAME thing I was thinking – now I can eat all the raw cookie dough I want! Muah ha ha ha ha ha!!! SCORE!!! Let me know what recipes YOU try!
Susan – We are so so excited! I think I will make them to share with my fam over the 4th.
I am thinking of making a sugar free chocolate cookie. A girl needs a cookie now and again!
sizzle – Let me know how it turns out! I would like to try something like that. I have made sugar free banana cookies. Not the same as chocolate chip though!
I’m at work and this is making me very, very hungry!!!! Cookies like that could make me go vegan…for a day perhaps 😉
Emma – LOL! I am really surprised vegan sweets are SO good!
