Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cup Vegan butter
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons Unsweetened non-dairy milk
- 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream together the vegan butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the non-dairy milk and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture and mix until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms. Avoid overmixing.
Using your hands or a cookie scoop, roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Flatten each ball slightly with the bottom of a glass or your palm to create an even surface for the cookies.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are just starting to turn golden. Be careful not to overbake.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Optional: Decorate with vegan frosting or sprinkles once the cookies have cooled completely, if desired.
