Most dark chocolate chips are vegan however you can look for these specific brands: Enjoy Life Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips, Gerbs dark chocolate chips, Lilly’s Dark Chocolate Chips, Guitard’s classic version of the chocolate chip, and Sunspire Carob Chips.
Vegan chocolate chip cookies are so easy and fun to make. Replacing the egg ingredient for baking has never been easier as well. You can use things such as banana, applesauce, or peanut butter. Other egg replacements that have worked for me includes sweet potato, agar powder, and sugar free pudding mix.
My kids love vegan cookies also. They do not care about whether or not my baking is vegan or not. All they want to know is if it tastes good. And they devoured these cookies right up!
