Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookie Bar

Instead of baking individual cookies, make one big Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookie Bar and cut into bars for an easy recipe!

It is hard to believe that the holidays will be just around the corner. I love baking cookies year round, but there is something just magical about baking during the holidays. 

These Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars are perfect for giving to friends and family. 

I am excited to share one of my new favorite cookie recipe for Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookie Bar.

 Instead of making individual cookies, the dough is baked into one big chocolate chip cookie bar.

It’s so easy and delicious. And honestly who doesn’t love baking one giant cookie. 

This is my first recipe using aquafaba for the egg in a recipe. I am a little late to the aquafaba party, but I am extremely happy with using aquafaba.

Aquafaba is the name given to the brine cooking liquid of beans like chickpeas.

Instead of discarding the  bean liquid, you can use it in place of eggs. I can’t wait to start using aquafaba in more recipes soon.

The dough might seem a little crumbly and like it won’t hold together. That is exactly what you are looking for this cookie bar.

After the Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookie Bar bakes, it gets drizzled with melted chocolate chips. A little extra chocolate is always better. 

Yes! The chocolate chip cookie bars can be made ahead of time. 

Store the sliced cookie bars in an air-tight container for up to 3 days. 

You can also freeze the cookies to enjoy at a later date. The cookies freeze really well. 

This vegan chocolate chip cookie bars recipe has definitely become a family favorite around here! My family loves enjoying a slice of the chocolate chip cookie bar for a little sweet treat.
