Today I’m excited to be sharing my single-serve, veganized version of the popular LEVAIN Bakery cookie that’s been all over the internet lately! 😇 Scroll to the bottom to see a droolworthy THICK cookie cross section.
The coconut oil gives the cookie a “buttery” texture and then the combination of brown sugar + white sugar gives the cookie a crisp exterior, and soft & chewy centre. Soooo good!
Here is the recipe:

Notes
My tips to make "THIC" cookies:
a) FREEZE the cookie dough to let it dehydrate and prevent it from spread out too much when baking
b) I baked my cookie in small round ramekin (~10cm diameter) and I found that this also helped the cookie to become taller instead of wider.
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons self-raising flour
- 10g chocolate, chopped
- 2-3 walnuts, chopped
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil, melted
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon white sugar
- 1 teaspoon almond milk (or any plant milk)
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- 1. In a bowl, mix the melted coconut oil, brown & white sugar, plant milk and vanilla until the sugars have dissolved.
- 2.Mix in the flour until a cookie dough consistency form
- 3. Fold through the chocolate chunks and walnuts
- 4. Shape the cookie dough into a tall dome shape. Put a layer of non-stick paper beneath it and pop it back in the bowl and then in the freezer for 20 minutes
- 5. In the meantime preheat the oven to 180 degrees celsius, fanforced
- 6. After 20 minutes, take the cookie dough out from the freezer and put it in a round ramekin (my ramekin is 10cm in diameter). You can also just put it on a lined baking tray but the cookie will be a bit flatter as it will have space to spread.
- 7. Bake in the oven for 17-20 minutes until the cookie is golden on top and around the edges.
- 8. Remove the cookie from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before touching it - it will firm up as it cools.
