Preheat the oven to 175°C (345°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
⚙ Preheating the OvenOven
💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
2
Sift the flour and baking soda into a bowl.

3
Whip the soft margarine with the sugar and brown sugar, to a smooth, pale mixture.
⚙ WhippingBowlHand mixerorStand mixerorWhisk
💡Cream the margarine soft, at room temperature: cold margarine doesn't take in air, and melted margarine doesn't hold it.
4
Add the flax eggs and vanilla and mix well.
5
Add the flour, baking soda and salt and mix just until a dough forms.
💡Mix in the flour only until a dough forms: long kneading develops gluten, and the cookies come out hard instead of crumbly.
6
Fold the chocolate chunks into the dough gently.

Bake 10–12 minutes, until the edges are set and the center is still soft.

💡Take the cookies out while they still look soft: they firm up as they cool, and long baking dries them out.
💡Check by the cue (until…), not just the clock: every oven bakes a little differently.

Cool 5 minutes on the pan: the cookies firm up as they cool.
