Calories: 345kcal
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup melted vegan butter
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 3 tablespoons almond milk soy or coconut milk fine
- 1 3/4 cups all purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/4 cups vegan chocolate chips I used mini chocolate chips
- 10 ounces vegan marshmallows I used Trader Joes brand
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line an 8 x 8 inch pan with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the melted vegan butter, brown sugar, vanilla and almond milk until smooth. Now add the flour, baking powder and salt and mix with a large wooden spoon until combined.
- Add 2/3 of the cookie dough into the pan and push it down evenly with your hands. (If it sticks, wet your hands slightly as needed.)
- Sprinkle 1 cup of the chocolate chips on top of the cookie dough (leave 1/4 cup for the top). Now add the marshmallows, evenly, on top of the chocolate chips.
- Sprinkle the rest of the cookie dough on top, as well as the rest of the chocolate chips.
- Bake for 25 minutes until golden brown. May also broil for just a couple of minutes to make the marshmallows even more toasty, but watch closely so it doesn't burn! Let cool for 10 minutes or so before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
Notes
- May sub coconut oil for the vegan butter if desired.
- Any kind of non-dairy milk will work here, not just almond milk.
- Try subbing with a gluten free flour mix to make these gluten free.
