Tips for baking vegan cookies
- Always soften the vegan butters by leaving them on the countertop. They will soften within 10 minutes. Never microwave them because it will melt unevenly.
- Store the vegan cookies in the refrigerator whenever possible. The vegan butters and dairy used in them are more stable when refrigerated
- These cookies can also be gifted as edible gifts. I love making a huge basket of various cookies before gifting them
- Always choose the sugars suggested in the recipe. If it says light brown sugar, use that instead of granulated sugar. The reason is that the baker knows how to get the right sweetness. I see people use different sugars and wonder why their cookies didn’t taste good.
- Whenever possible, “fold” in the dough ingredients as opposed to whisking it or using mixers. They reason is that the folding process will make the dough more airy. Check out the Baker’s Almanac on the best folding techniques.

Giant cookie
Why eat a small cookie when you can have a GIGANTIC cookie, right?
Giant cookies are easy to bake because you don’t have to worry about cookie cutters or shaping them like gingerbread men!
These cookie is baked with vegan ingredients, including vegan M&M’s. I found companies that actually sell vegan candy which is pretty cool.
Top the cookie with ice cream, chocolate sauce and some nuts like pecans. I even topped it with blueberry crumble too which was very a very delicious idea.
Pumpkin spice cookies
A simple pumpkin spice cookie recipe made with vegan chocolate protein powder. They taste so much like ginger cookies too.
They are crunchy from the inside which is why I love them so much. They are so pretty when get little cracks on the top!
Best part is that you can refrigerate them for months and they will still retain their texture and taste.
Vegan crinkle cookies

The aroma of these cookies baking lingered for hours. It was a natural air freshener! Wish I could bottle it and sell it for all to enjoy.
If you don’t have lemon, you can use lime too.
