Vegan Recipe Hack: Remix With Your Favorite Nut Butter

If you thought going vegan meant sacrificing your favorite homemade cookies, think again. Our vegan‑friendly Chocolate and the Chip cookie mix is here to prove that plant‑based baking can be just as indulgent, chewy, and downright comforting as the classic version. Better yet? You get to be the flavor creator.

What You’ll Need

  • 1 bag Chocolate and the Chip cookie mix
  • 2 tbsp melted coconut oil
  • 2 tbsp your choice of nut butter
  • 4 tbsp water or milk alternative

Directions

  1. Preheat & Prep: Preheat your oven to 350°F.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together melted coconut oil, nut butter, and water (or milk alternative) until smooth.
  3. Combine: Pour in the dry mix and stir until you have a soft, slightly sticky dough.
  4. Chill: Pop the dough in the fridge for 10–15 minutes—this makes your cookies thicker and easier to scoop.
  5. Bake: Scoop onto a parchment‑lined sheet (2" apart) and bake 10–12 minutes, until edges are golden.

Flavor Adventures: Your Nut Butter Remix

The real fun begins when you choose your nut butter. Each brings a unique twist:

  • Peanut Butter Lover? Use 2 tbsp creamy peanut butter for classic PB–chocolate bliss.
  • Pistachio Dream: Swap in 2 tbsp pistachio butter and top with crushed pistachios for a green‑tinged treat.
  • Almond Bliss: Go with almond butter and a sprinkle of sea salt—elegant and nutty.
  • Cashew Coconut: Mix in cashew butter and fold in 1 tbsp shredded coconut for tropical vibes.
  • Hazelnut Indulgence: Try hazelnut butter for a Ferrero Rocher–inspired cookie.

Pro Tips

  • Swirl It: After scooping, gently swirl an extra teaspoon of nut butter on top for marbled goodness.
  • Milk It Up: Use oat milk for a creamy texture; almond milk for a lighter finish.
  • Mix‑Ins: Fold in vegan chocolate chips, dried fruit, or granola clusters for extra texture.
