These Vegan Chocolate Chip Pecan Cookies are a healthy dessert that you will enjoy making as much as you will enjoy eating. I used some tasty, non-dairy chocolate chips and crushed pecans, along with some other key ingredients in making these cookies. The cookies were light, crunchy and delicious!
I can find all of my baking ingredients from Whole Foods Market, Wegmans and Sprouts Farmers Market. They have an excellent assortment.
