Simply Vegan: CAKE-LIKE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

[Guest guest]

I found this on the net, and I don't who wrote the comments in the

variations. But I thought they were interesting, so I kept them in

the recipe.

 

FWIW, I keep frozen bananas on hand, and if I need one for baking, I

thaw it in the microwave, then mix with the other ingredients. Made

some awesome pancakes the other day using a thawed and mashed banana.

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 package chocolate chips -- (12 ounce)

1 teaspoon baking soda

2 1/4 Cups whole wheat flour

1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1 large banana -- mashed

1/4 Cup maple syrup

1/2 Cup water

 

(Makes 2 dozen)

MY VARIATIONS [http://members.aol.com/scbuck/cookie.htm]: Whenever I

start to make this recipe I never have bananas in the house. I have

used applesauce and even vegan lemon pudding in place of bananas. I

also choose to use carob chips in place of the chocolate.
