This recipe came from one of my favorite Vegan websites Oh She Glows, we modified it just a tiny bit to our liking! They are sooooo delicious and make a great family night treat!

-1/2 cup + 1/3 cup whole wheat flour
-1/3 cup raw cacao powder
-1/2 cup coconut palm sugar
-1/4 teaspoon baking powder
-1/4 teaspoon baking soda
-1/2 teaspoon sea salt
-1/3 cup almond or rice milk (or a tiny bit more if batter is dry)
-2 tablespoon pure maple syrup
-1 tablespoon flaxmeal
-1/3 cup coconut oil, softened
-1  teaspoon pure vanilla extract
-1/4 teaspoon almond extract
-1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
-1/4 cup dark chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl mix dry ingredients together (oats, flour, cacao powder, coconut palm sugar, baking soda, baking powder and salt), set aside.
In a medium bowl whisk together maple syrup, ground flax, non dairy milk, oil, and vanilla.
Add wet to dry and stir well. Once mixed, stir in coconut and dark chocolate. Using a cookie scoop drop cookies onto your cookie sheet lined with parchement. Bake for 12 mins. at 350F, then transfer onto wire rack for cooling.
