These double chocolate cookies are completely egg-free, dairy-free and absolutely vegan, not to mention delicious. If you can't find vegan chocolate chunks (one popular brand is called "Enjoy Life," and is widely available online, including on Amazon), use regular chocolate chips in this recipe—you're still in for a real treat. For the egg replacer, try the Ener-G brand. Bob's Red Mill is also a wonderful flour brand for vegan baking. Buy a box of either one of these just once and they'll last you a long time, depending on how much egg-free baking you do, of course. If you're a fan of nutty cookies, add in a half-cup of coarsely chopped walnuts, hazelnuts, or even macadamia nuts would be best.
