Variations

**Gluten-Free and Vegan Variations 🌱**

- **Gluten-Free**: To make these cookies gluten-free, substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend. Make sure to also check that your baking soda is gluten-free, which it typically is. The texture might differ slightly, but the flavor will still be amazing!

- **Vegan**: Substituting the eggs and butter is key. Use flax eggs (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed mixed with 3 tablespoons water per egg) as your egg replacement. For butter, opt for vegan butter or coconut oil. As for the chocolate, make sure to use dairy-free versions. Most dark chocolates are naturally vegan, but double-check the labels to be sure.

    Cookies can spread for several reasons. You might have added too much butter or not enough flour. Also, ensuring your baking sheet was cool before placing the dough can help control spreading.
