How to Make Vegan Soft Sugar Cookies

  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. This is key for tender cookies!
  3. Beat in the flax egg until well combined.
  4. Add the vanilla extract and almond extract.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix!
  7. Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes. This helps prevent spreading and creates a chewier cookie.
  8. Roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thickness. Use cookie cutters to shape the cookies.
  9. Place the cookies onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each.
  10. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  11. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  12. Once cool, frost with your favorite vegan pink frosting (recipe ideas can be found online!).
