Caramel Chocolate Chip Cookies

How was everyone's Christmas?! What did you all get?!

I got a LOT of great stuff, including: gift cards (Whole Foods, gas, Anthropologie, Target, iTunes, Sperry Topsider, Starbucks, and more), candy, chocolate, Goldfish [I'm not *completely* dairy free], books and cook books (Vegan Pie in the Sky! and Thrive! and Thrive Foods! And Skinny Bitch: Home, Beauty, and Style!), documentaries (Forks over Knives and Food, Inc.), a new Bible (NIV/Message parallel Bible with my name engraved on it), Audrey Hepburn move & coffee mug, money, a Cuisinart portable blender, and more! Great Christmas! Christmas Eve was a little.... terrible, spent crying with a headache and feeling sick, but let's not get into that, shall we? :)  



Someone requested the recipe for these cookies I showed in my last WIAW - here you go! I hope you enjoy them!


  • Caramel Chocolate Chip Cookies
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) Earth Balance, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 flax eggs (2 T. flax meal mixed with 6 T. water)
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 2 T. Royal Harvest Caramel Flax Oil
  • 2 T. Royal Harvest Chocolate Flax Oil
  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • 2. In a large bowl, beat Earth Balance and sugars until light and fluffy.
  • 3. Add vanilla, flax eggs, and flax oils. Mix until combined.
  • 4. Add remaining ingredients and mix until just combined. 
  • 5. Bake NO MORE than 10 minutes or they will become VERY crispy. You could probably even bake them for 8-9 minutes if you like. Just do not cook them longer than 10 minutes!
  • 6. Remove from oven and allow to cool. Feel free to decorate tops with sprinkles prior to baking if desired.
  • What cookies did you bake for Christmas?
  • Much love,
    Rachael
