    This recipe for a Single Serving Vegan Double Chocolate Cookie is completely eggless and dairy-free! These cookies are intensely chocolatey and absolutely delicious.

    Sometimes you need a single-serving dessert. And even better if it is a chocolate dessert. This recipe technically makes two cookies, but I still consider it a single serving. And they are super chocolatey and fudgy and only require 20 minutes total to make!

    These cookies are quick and easy!

    Double chocolate cookies are so good when they are done well. They are like a cross between a chewy fudgy brownie and a cookie. Also, if you want a double chocolate cookie that makes more than 2 cookies, look no further than my Vegan Hot Cocoa Cookies.

    Ingredients

    Vegan Butter: Any vegan butter will work, here.

    Natural Cocoa Powder: Natural cocoa powder just means its not Dutch-Processed. My top recommendation is Ghirardelli Cocoa Powder, but Hershey's Cocoa Powder will also work.

    Baking Soda: A bit of baking soda helps these cookies spread.

    Chocolate Chips: They wouldn't be vegan and dairy-free double chocolate cookies without chocolate chips!

    This is all you need to make these cookies.

    Substitutions

    Instead of double dark chocolate cookies, swap Enjoy Life White Chips for the chocolate chips.

    Instructions

    This Single Serving Vegan Double Chocolate Cookie is super easy to make. Here's how:

    First, mix the melted butter and brown sugar together.

    Next, add the non-dairy milk and vanilla and stir.

    Vegan butter and brown sugar in a small ramekin.
    Stir melted non-dairy butter and brown sugar together.
    Adding non-dairy milk and vanilla into the vegan butter and sugar mixture.
    The, add non-dairy milk and vanilla.

    Then, add the cocoa and stir until well combined.

    Now, add flour, salt and baking soda and mix until JUST combined. Be careful not to over-mix at this stage.

    Finally, stir the chocolate chips in, divide the dough into two cookie dough balls and bake!

    Split the dough in half and bake!

    Expert Tips

    It is hard to tell when the vegan single-serving double chocolate cookies are done since they are a deep brown color.

    The cookies shouldn't need to bake for more than 10 minutes and all you are looking for is for the edges to feel set when touched with a finger.

    And if you are looking for more small-batch desserts to try, make my Small Batch Cupcakes or Single Serving Blueberry Crisp!

    These cookies are rich, fudgy, and delicious!

    Storage

    To store, place these dairy-free and vegan double chocolate cookies into an airtight container and freeze. Reheat in a microwave or toaster oven.

    Notes

    Natural cocoa powder just means it is not Dutch processed. I like Ghirardelli, but Hershey’s cocoa powder will also work!
    It can be hard to tell when these cookies are done because they are a deep brown color. You are looking for the edges to just feel set. They shouldn’t take more than 10 minutes. Then allow them to sit on the baking sheet for 5 minutes to continue cooking out of the oven.

      Delicious cookies! I was trying to find a recipe to replace the insanely expensive vegan cookies I can buy from a local health food store. This isn't an exact duplicate of course, but were very good in their own way. I was taken aback by the amount of chocolate chips called for, but put them all in anyway. I didn't regret it once I was eating them 🙂
