vegan sugar cookies


makes about 22 cookies

3/4 cup earth balance vegan buttery sticks
1 cup organic sugar
2 egg replacers*
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 tsp aluminum-free baking powder
1/2 tsp salt

*EGG REPLACERS
make 2 egg replacers by whisking the following together until foamy:
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
4 T flour
6 T water

take butter out of fridge a few hours before to soften. in a large bowl, cream butter and sugar with a mixer 5-6 minutes. add vanilla, then slowly add egg replacers.

add salt, baking powder, and slowly add flour. don't mix too much, just enough so you don't see any more white powder. combine to form a dough. cover and chill at least 2 hours or overnight.

bake cookies at 350 for 9-10 minutes or until golden.

frosting:

1 T melted earth balance
1 T non-hydrogenated shortening
1/2 tsp vanilla
2 cups powdered sugar
coconut or any non-dairy milk

combine ingredients. add coconut milk to reach desired consistency (thin enough to spread on cookie with a spoon).
