Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

In a bowl, beat together 1/2 cup softened vegan butter and 1 cup brown sugar until light and creamy, about 1-2 minutes.

Add 1/4 cup non-dairy milk and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture and mix well.

Add salt, baking powder, and baking soda to the mixture and mix again to combine.

Add 2 cups all-purpose flour to the bowl and mix until the dough is just combined and soft.

Fold in 1 cup of chocolate chips gently, being careful not to overmix.

Lower the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C).

Scoop out 12 cookies and place them evenly spaced on a baking sheet.

Press a few extra chocolate chips onto the top of each cookie before baking.

Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or for best results, 13-16 minutes.

Let the cookies rest for 15-20 minutes after baking to set their texture.
