Thyme-Flaxseed-Brown Rice-Crispie-Dark Chocolate Cookies

Adapted from this Eat the Love recipe

Ingredients:

¼ c unsweetened coconut or almond milk, combined with ¼ tsp apple cider vinegar

2 tsp vanilla extract

1 tsp thyme, dried

8 oz semi sweet chocolate

2 c unbleached all-purpose flour

½ c dutch processed cocoa

2 tsp baking powder

½ tsp sea salt

3 tsp Ener-G Egg Replacer

½ c Earth Balance

1 ½ c brown sugar

¼ c whole flax seeds

1 ½ c brown rice crispies (I Like Nature’s Path)

about ½ c unbleached cane sugar for rolling the cookies

Method:

Preheat oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment or silpats

Combine the ¼ tsp apple cider with the non-dairy milk and set aside for a few minutes to curdle. After the milk has curdled, add vanilla extract and thyme. Set aside for a few minutes to let the flavors come together.

Meanwhile, carefully melt the chocolate in the microwave or in a double boiler.

In a medium sized mixing bowl, combine the flour, cocoa, baking powder, egg replacer and salt. Stir to combine.

In the bowl of your stand mixer, cream together the Earthy B and the brown sugar until it is fluffy. Add half of the dry ingredients and mix until incorporated. Add buttermilk mixture and continue to mix. Add the remainder of the dry ingredients, mix, then add the flax seeds and rice crispies.

Grab tbsp size bits of dough and roll into a ball. Roll in cane sugar and flatten just a bit on the baking sheet. Bake 13-15 minutes.
