Add vegan butter and sugar to a mixing bowl. Cream them together by beating them with a spoon until well combined.
Add the oat milk and vanilla extract and stir in briefly.
Add flour and baking powder and combine into a uniform, moist dough.
Finally, stir in the oats and chocolate chips to evenly distribute them. The cookie dough will be soft and sticky.
Using two spoons or a cookie scoop, place scoops of dough about two tablespoons in size onto a lined baking sheet. Space them out to allow the cookies to spread. You should fit about 9 cookies per sheet.
Bake at 180°C for 12 - 15 minutes until golden brown.
Leave the cookies on the sheet to firm up for about 5 before moving them onto a wire cooling rack. Wait until the cookies completely cooled down before storing in an airtight container.
