Berry Sugar Cookies

Vegan Cookie with Mixed Berries + Frosting

I was never a huge sugar cookie fan until I created this recipe. They are not overly sweet, and the texture is chewy on the inside but slightly crunchy on the outside.

These cookies never disappoint, and nobody can ever tell they are vegan. They make the perfect recipe for any occasion when you need something quick and reliable.

Everything is made in one bowl, so you don’t have to worry about a lot of dishes either.

With berry season coming up, these are the perfect cookie to make. They are light for summer with the delicious fresh berry taste.

I used a store-bought vanilla frosting for this recipe. Any frosting will work. If you prefer something a little lighter, you could also top with a glaze or leave as is. If you want something on the healthier side, you could top with any vanilla yogurt of your choice!

Vegan butter: any vegan butter will work. You can also try liquid oil or normal butter if you aren’t vegan.

Nondairy milk: I always use unsweetened almond milk. Any nondairy milk will work. If you aren’t vegan, traditional milk should also work.

Sugar: I used white sugar in this recipe to ensure the dough didn’t change a different color. You could use any granulated sugar of your choice.

Vanilla extract: the vanilla gives the cookies an extra burst of flavor. You can omit if you want or use almond extract.

All-purpose flour: I haven’t tested any other flours in this recipe.

Berries: I used a frozen assortment of berries, however, you can use fresh ones too. You could also stick to one berry rather than mixing if you prefer.

Ingredients:

• Vegan butter

Recipe:

Makes about 7-9 cookies

• 3 tablespoons vegan butter

• 2 teaspoons baking powder

• 2/3 cup all-purpose flour

• About 1/2 cup berries (can do more or less)

Directions:

1.    Preheat the oven to 350F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or spray with cooking spray. Set aside.

2.    In a medium sized bowl, melt the butter. Add in the nondairy milk, sugar, and vanilla extract. Stir to combine.

3.    Add in the baking powder and all-purpose flour. Stir until a dough is formed.

4. Fold in the berries. Use a cookie scoop to scoop the dough. Press flat onto the cookie sheet. Repeat until all dough is used.

Be sure to store the cookies in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They should last up to 1 week. You can store them in the freezer to last longer.
