A childhood favorite

These may be some of the best chocolate chip cookies you will ever try!

For most American's, chocolate chip cookies are a childhood staple. When I was growing up the Nestle Toll House cookie dough was our go to brand and they never lasted more than minutes out of the oven. As a kid though, I had no idea that my favorite cookies included so many ingredients that were unknown or bad for me such as sodium aluminum phosphate, niacin, thiamine, mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid, and palm oil. Note to self... always read the label!

Now my go to this homemade vegan alternative that has the same sugary chocolatey goodness, but without the unknown ingredients and dairy! Give these a try and watch your family enjoy these comforting homemade chocolate chip cookies.
