Decadent Vegan Cookies by Lauren Haas

Cookies are an endless source of inspiration and joy. Chef Lauren V. Haas knows this well, so she brings you two of her signature plant-based cookies: a decadent double chocolate cookie topped with a thin chocolate coin and a warm roasted peanut cookie. In her first recipe, cookies and praliné create a wonderful combination brimming with texture, richness, and warmth. Made with a luscious dark chocolate batter and dark chocolate hazelnut ganache, the nuttiness of the praliné is perfectly complemented by the gooey, chocolatey wonder of these plant-based cookies. In her second recipe, Chef Haas highlights peanuts by roasting them and then making a vegan chewy caramel sauce that adds a new dimension to this American classic.
