Vegan dark chocolate cookies. The paragraph right above the ingredients says : "These vegan salted dark chocolate chip cookies have less sugar than most chocolate chip cookie recipes, and they're made with coconut oil instead of vegan butter." That's why it was a little confusing to me! Not this post, but another one. Basically, when I am not happy with the setting or cannot figure out the composition. Traditionally, milk chocolate chips are not vegan; however, many dark chocolate chips can be vegan. The main ingredient that makes a cookie not vegan is either milk or whey (whey powder).
If those ingredients are not included in the ingredient list, then the chocolate chips are likely vegan.
Dark chocolate does NOT contain cocoa butter, which is an oil from the cocoa bean (always read labels to make sure).
So go with vegan dark chocolate for healthy whole food plant-based treats!
