How to Make Frosted Rhubarb Cookies Vegan

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the vegan butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the flax egg (flaxseed meal mixed with water).
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  6. Fold in the chopped rhubarb.
  7. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Prepare the frosting by beating together the vegan butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Add plant-based milk as needed to reach desired consistency.
  11. Once the cookies are completely cool, frost them generously.
