Vegan Sugar Cookies

These are super tender and amazingly delicious!! Plus they are of course dairy and egg free for my little allergy kid!

Ingredients for cookies

1/2 cup Vegan Butter, softened (they make an amazing coconut based butter!)

1/2 cup sugar

1/4 cup brown sugar

1/4 cup pumpkin

1 tsp vanilla extract

2 cups flour (plus more for rolling shapes out)

1/2 TBSP cornstarch

1 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp salt

1-2 tsp almond milk

Combine everything in an electric mixing bowl and mix until well combined. Add more flour as needed so dough is not super sticky. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes then roll out on floured surface and cut with desired cookie cutter shapes!

Bake in preheated oven 350F for 8-10 minutes until slightly golden (they will harden some after you take them out). Remove from oven and let sit for 3 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack.

ICING: Mix the following together and have at it!

1/4 Cup Vegan butter, softened

1/4 Cup shortening

2-3 cups powdered sugar (until desired consistency)

splash of almond milk

Food coloring if desired!
