I’m a sucker for chocolate chip cookies. But, that becomes tricky in a clean eating lifestyle. No longer. These rich and chewy Vegan Chocolate Chip Blondies Recipe will satisfy that chocolate chip cookie craving, without the gluten and dairy. Just be warned… once you take the first bit… have a tall glass of your favorite non-dairy milk at the ready! These babies cause what we fondly call in my home, “MILK EMERGENCY!" Enjoy your cookies, my friends.
