Vegan Millie's Style Cookies



I decided to have a go at making a vegan version of the type of chocolate chunk cookie that you get at somewhere like 'Millie's Cookies'. I used a Humdinger Tangerine chocolate bar and two bags of their white chocolate buttons. The recipe is adapted from the chocolate chip cookie one in Vegan Cookies Invade Your Cookie Jar.

Chocolate Chunk Cookies
Makes 16

Ingredients

3/4 cup of sugar
2/3 cup sunflower oil
1/4 cup soy milk
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1 tablespoon of arrowroot powder
2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
1 1/2 - 2 cups of plain flour (you'll know you've used enough when the dough comes together)
1/2 teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda
1/2 teaspoon of salt
2 bags of humdinger white buttons roughly chopped
1 bar of tangerine Humdinger 'milk' chocolate

1. Pre-heat the oven to 350f / 180c. Lightly grease your baking sheet.

2. Mix together the sugar, oil, soy milk, almond extract and arrowroot for about 2 minutes until it makes a thick caramel.

3. Mix in the vanilla extract.

4. Add 1 cup of flour, the bicarbonate of soda and the salt. Mix in then add the rest of the flour and mix to a dough. If the dough is too sticky to handle keep adding flour until it comes together. Fold in the chocolate chunks.

5. Roll the dough into balls and flatten to about 2 1/2 inches wide. Place on a baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheets for a couple of minutes, then remove to a wire rack to finish cooling.

    Thanks for this recipe they taste great, however when I made these, when it came to rolling them into balls the mixture was too sticky to do so? Like REALLY sticky. I'm certain I used the right amounts so just wondering if that happened to you?

      So sorry, I didn't see your comment until today when I went back to get this recipe to use as a base for some chocolate and marzipan cookies. I too found the 1 and 1/2 cups of flour to not be enough and it ended up being nearer 2 cups. I've amended the recipe. Thanks so much for commenting!

Cola de Mono

Image
Colo de Mono (Tail of the Monkey) is a Chilean concoction traditionally drunk ice cold at Christmastime. Obviously their winters are a lot warmer than ours so in the UK it's more suited to this time of year. The Chileans use aguadiente an overproof cane spirit. I use Cachaca 51 which I have in for Mojitos and Caipirinhas. Traditionally made with cows milk, here is my vegan version. Colo De Mono Makes 1 pint Serves 4 2 cups of vanilla soy milk 1/3 cup of caster sugar 1/3 teaspoon of cinammon 3 teaspoons of instant coffee 1/2 cup of spirit* Bring the milk, sugar and cinnamon to a low boil in a pan stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Turn off the heat and stir in the coffee. Leave to cool. Once cool add the spirit and chill in the fridge. It will keep for 2 weeks. Serve over ice or straight up but make it cold. * Spirit - I use Cachaca but have heard that people use tequila too.

Interview With Lisa Goddard of Lily and Dilly

Image
If you've eaten vegan cake in Manchester City Centre in the last few years then chances are you'll have eaten cake baked by Lisa Goddard of bakery Lily and Dilly . We caught up with Lisa to find out what set her on the vegan baking path! So, Lily and Dilly? What made you set up as an independent bakery and where does the name come from? Having worked as a stop frame animator for 12 years, I was getting rather fed up with short term contracts, so the last time I was made redundant, I decided not to chase work round the country, and if that meant a career change, then so be it. A friend of mine had just set up The Cocoa Emporium as an independent Chocolatier, so I gave her a hand whilst navigating through the benefits system, mostly to get me out of bed on a morning! Doing baking for her farmers market was fun, as it was one of my main hobbies, so when she asked if I fancied getting a little shop  with her, it seemed a nice chance to start something new. We got the shop...

Growing your own, bargains and a breakfast recipe

I've started sprouting again! In my old flat I used to do sprouting all the time. The flat was in an old 1930's building and had radiators run from a central boiler room and it was always nice and warm. The constant warm temp made sprouting pretty fail safe. Now I'm in a Derbyshire stone house where it's not as warm the results haven't been as great and I gave up trying  but with this very hot summer we are having I thought I would give it another go and I'm glad I have done. As I already have the seeds it kind of feels like free food too! I'm using these sprouts  from A Vogel. This week I've grown alfalfa but pictured is my first attempt from the week before which was a mix of radish, lentil and rocket which grew into lovely peppery tasting sprouts that we used to garnish our bowl meals for the week. These took 4 days to grow and I nearly gave up on day 2 because I could see mold. Luckily I googled and found out that it wasn't mold at all but r...
