Ingredients
  

Wet

  • 1/2 cup canola oil
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 3 tablespoons soy or almond milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon chocolate extract

Dry

  • 1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Topping

  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicon baking mat.
  • In a large bowl, mix oil, sugar, maple syrup, soy/almond milk, and stir quickly with a fork to mix well. Add extracts and stir again.
  • Add dry ingredients, and mix until dough is pliable. Meanwhile mix topping ingredients and dump onto a plate.
  • Roll dough into 1.5 inch diameter balls, and pat into the sugar topping mixture. Flatten into a 2-inch wide disc. Transfer to baking sheet, sugar side up. Place 2 inches apart, as cookies will spread.
  • Bake for 12 minutes at 350F. Remove, and let cool for 5-10 minutes on baking sheet. Then transfer to cooling rack to cool completely.
