Found the recipe in several different places on the internet. Here is the version I used:
Makes approximately 24 medium sized or 12 large cookies.
(The ones above are medium to largish - I got 22 cookies out of my dough.)
Ingredients
3/4 cup of sugar
1/4 cup maple syrup
2 TBSPs applesauce
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups plain flour
1 tsp baking soda or bicarb of soda (not baking powder)
1/4 tsp salt
3/4 cup chocolate chips or smashed up chunks of chocolate
Method
Preheat oven to 190C.
If using chocolate pieces - place in plastic bag and smash with a rolling pin.
Stir together oil, sugar, syrup, applesauce and vanilla. Then add the flour, baking soda, salt and then the chocolate chips or chunks. Stir together, using your hands if needed to make the chocolate pieces stick to the dough. If the dough is too dry, add about 2 - 3 tsps of soy milk until it holds together.
Drop by the spoonful onto a lightly greased baking tray and flatten slightly - they do spread so you can do about 3 - 4 very large cookies or about 6 - 8 smaller cookies on a tray at a time. The flatter / thinner you press the dough, the more crispy the cookies will be. (If you leave them quite thick, they will turn out nice and chewy and stay chewy for up to a week.)
If using a cookie cutter, you'll need to press the dough into the shape for each individual cookie as the dough is not the type you can roll out.
If you are making star shaped cookies, keep an eye on them while they cook as the edges will cook faster than the rest of the cookie and could burn.
Bake for about 10 minutes or until edges are golden brown.
