Happy Friday y’all! The weekend is nearly upon us, and here in my homey abode, a snug October weekend beckons a fresh batch of homemade cookies. Now, we ain’t talkin’ about just any ol’ cookie. Let me introduce y’all to my mouth-watering salted chocolate chip rosemary cookies, all vegan to boot.
Enjoy ’em right from the oven, dunked into a hot cup of (soy) milky earl grey.
The best thing? Your house will be filled with the aroma of freshly baked cookies and that sweet smell of rosemary all day. It’s become my new favorite fall fragrance. I reckon Yankee Candles oughta consider adding this cozy combo to their holiday lineup!
Salted dark chocolate and rosemary go together like peas and carrots – makes me wonder why this herb ain’t in every darn dark chocolate chip cookie recipe out there.
If you’re an old hand at baking cookies, you know achieving that just-right chewy texture can be as tricky as a catfish in a creek but let me tell ya, these little delights hit the spot! They’re the perfect blend of crispy edges with a soft, almost fudgy center.

Cook Time
12 mins
Total Time
27 mins
Servings
15 cookies
Ingredients
- 60 ml soy milk
- 1½ tsp vanilla extract
- 225 g margarine
- 100 g brown sugar
- 100 g caster sugar
- 285 g all purpose flour
- ½ tsp sea salt
- 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda (aka. baking soda)
- 150 g chopped dark chocolate or chocolate chips
- 2 packed Tbsp finely chopped rosemary
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 180˚C.
- Finely chop the rosemary and the chocolate if using a bar instead of chocolate chips.
- Then add the soy milk, vanilla extract, margarine, brown sugar and white caster sugar to a big mixing bowl and combine using an electric whisk.
- Whip until smooth and creamy then add the flour, salt, bicarbonate of soda (not baking powder!), chocolate chips and chopped rosemary. Mix everything with a wooden spoon until well combined.
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper and scoop small tablespoons full of cookie dough onto the tray leaving enough space for the cookies to flatten and expand. The dough will be rather sticky, don’t worry, that’s how it’s supposed to be!
- Pop the trays in the oven and bake them for 10 -12 minutes or until the edges start turning golden brown.
- Enjoy warm or store in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
