- ¼ c brown sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ c avocado oil
- ¼ c unsweetened soy milk
- 1¼ c all-purpose flour
- ½ c cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking powder

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350℉ (180℃) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Add the flax egg, granulated sugar, brown sugar, vanilla, oil, and milk to a medium bowl and mix until combined.
- Sift the dry ingredients into the bowl then mix until the dough is well combined, making sure to use a rubber spatula to scrape the sides of the bowl so everything is incorporated. The dough should be soft but not runny or sticky.
- Using a tablespoon, form 12 equal-sized balls then gently roll in the remaining granulated sugar.
- Place on your baking sheet, leaving about an inch in between each cookie, and bake for 10-12 minutes.
- After baking, gently press down on the tops of the cookies to flatten them out then place on a wire rack to cool completely.
