Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 2/3 cup vegan butter, (softened (not melted))
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar ((optional))

Instruction

  • Add the vegan butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and salt to a large bowl. Use a whisk or a mixer to beat the ingredients together until fluffy. Add the flour half a cup at a time and mix well until you form a dough.
  • Dump the cookie dough onto a clean work surface and form into a brick about 6" length, 2 1/2" depth, and 1 1/4" in height. (It really doesn't matter if your brick is a different size). If the cookie dough is a bit crumbly, feel free to work it or knead it a bit until it holds together well and then form your brick. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap or parchment paper and chill in the fridge for an hour or until firm. The dough can be stored in the fridge like this for up to 4 days.
  • When ready to bake, preheat your oven to 350F (180C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Unwrap the cookie dough, and use a sharp knife to cut the dough into 1/4" slices. Space the cookie slices on the prepared baking sheet, and prick each cookie with a fork 3 - 4 times. Optionally you can sprinkle with a bit of sugar for garnish. Bake the cookies for 10 - 12 minutes until the bottoms of the cookies are very lightly browned. Let cool on the pan. Store cookies in an air-tight container for up to 7 days.
