FAQS

Can you use coconut sugar in cookies?

Yes. For this chocolate chip cookie recipe, I combined a little pure maple syrup with the coconut sugar. This helps mimic "brown sugar" since brown sugar has molasses in it.

Do I have to chill the cookie dough before baking?

Yes. Do not skip this step! Chilling the cookie dough before baking solidifies the fat (coconut oil) in these cookies. The coconut oil in the cookies melts as they bake. Because the dough has been chilled, it takes longer for that fat to melt in the oven. This ensures your cookies do not spread!

Can I make these cookies vegan?

I have not tried substituting a flax or chia egg in the recipe. I can't say if either works. Let us know if you try in the comments below!

How to store Coconut Sugar Chocolate Chip Cookies?

Store these cookies in an airtight container on the kitchen counter for a couple of days.

    Hi Krista, I just found my new favorite cookie. These are amazing! Since they are so rich, I decided to cut them in little square pieces to avoid overindulging. I keep them in my fridge so they don’t get too soft. Congratulations for creating this easy and delicious recipe.

    Hi! How long would you say your cookies last both in and out of the fridge? I think I may be going from cookie recipe to cookie recipe on your site and make these for friends! I recently discovered your site and love it!

      Hi Vanessa! I suggest storing the cookies in an air-tight container in the fridge for about 4 days or you can place them into the freezer to grab and microwave whenever you want a treat! – Krista <3

    These are a classic! I enjoy trying different types of chocolate in the recipe but so simple and everyone loves a good chocolate chips cookie! Cover them up on the counter and they'll be gone before you know it!

    I have a highlight on my page that feature a lot of my remakes from Frozen Bananas! Love your recipes! Thank you!

    Hi Krista,

    I've made most of your cookies and love them, I just have two questions. 1. Is this the one that can be made into a giant cookie, and 2. Will sugar free Maple syrup substitute work?

    Thanks so much!

      Hi Michelle, so happy to hear that! You can sub sugar free maple syrup for maple syrup, but not for coconut sugar. Granulated sweeteners and liquid sweeteners cannot be swapped one for one. You could probably make a cookie skillet out of the recipe, but I haven't personally tried.

    Can I use flax seed to make an egg replacement instead of using the egg?
    Thanks!

      I believe the texture will be too gooey.
