I usually buy Sweet Loren's cookie dough to make my annual melting snowman cookies, but wanted to try making my own dough this year. I saw lots of recipes online, but they did not seem to hold their shape once baked. This recipe was absolutely perfect! The cut-outs held their shape and the flavor was wonderful. The almond extract complimented the vanilla so well. The icing was also just the right texture and not too sweet. I will be making these again next year and none of our relatives thought they tasted "vegan" (even though I only bake and cook vegan lol).

I made this and it’s absolutely the most delicious recipe. The almond extract somehow boosts that vanilla flavor. Definitely follow this to the “T” - you won’t be disappointed. Also made a second batch and hiding it in the freezer for myself lol❤️

Made the gluten free with Bob's Red Mill AP gluten free flour. this is truly excellent! I added a little almond extract 1/8 tsp and vanilla extract 1 tsp to the glaze icing for flavor. Yum!

I make this recipe multiple times a year, and I am gearing up to make them again for the Holidays. I love these cookies so much. The almond extract addition is perfection and tastes nearly identical to my Great-Grandma’s cookies she made during my childhood. Each bite is a serious hug and taste of nostalgia for me. Thank you, Sam!

My go to recipe for sugar cookies.

Even made them with margarine this time as I was out of block Naturli. Deffo a more gooey cookie dough, but with a floured board, we managed.
It was so fun and feral, with flour everywhere and making up shapes as we went, the 8 year old was in heaven!

In reply to Reena. Sorry to hear you had trouble with the icing recipe. If the icing is mixed thoroughly, you can control how runny you make it before you put it into piping bags and then you can also control the size of hole in the piping bag. Wish we could help troubleshoot better than that!

I made the cookies from another recipe I had, but I tried to make the icing. I put in a little more milk and then put the icing in piping bags to make it look nice on the cookies. But, the icing barely came out of the piping bags!

In reply to Jessie. Yes it does! Allow several hours (depending on how thick you coat the cookies) for the icing to dry before bagging.

In reply to Cece. No need to melt the butter as it will be creamed with the sugar.

does this icing dry so the cookies can be bagged?

By: Cece

Cece — Sun, 10 Nov 2024 13:59:44 +0000

For the butter, does it need to be melted a bit in the microwave? Or be room temperature? Or used straightly from the fridge (cold)?

Worked a treat! No need to refrigerate, I was able to bake straight away

Look no further! It took years for us to find the best vegan sugar cookie and these are them! These taste delicious and the kids enjoy decorating them.

Giving 5 stars because these biscuits are delicious! But a warning- I had used unicorn, koala and bear cutters and the cookies did spread a bit. The bear was fine but the unicorn was unusable as the horn spread too much.

Thank you for a wonderful recipe! I used ground chia seeds and the dough was nice and pliable after rolling and chilling--perfect for cookie cutters! I cooked them for a few minutes longer than instructed because they didn't seem quite done yet. Flavour was great, huge hit with the kiddos!

In reply to Sam Turnbull. I have made them with GF all putpose flour and they work just fine.

I will definitely try this. I also just made the gingerbread cookie recipe which came out amazing. The flavor is a blast to the taste buds.

In reply to Samantha Chen. Thanks! I actually left it out and it was just fine! This year I have almond extract so I’ll try it with!

In reply to Lindsy. I have used this recipe to make spiral minty Christmas cookies. Of course if using something as potent as mint, use a smaller amount and build up, but I have subbed it for only vanilla with equal success. I know you asked this 2 years ago, but I hope you see this and it helps.

So tasty! They keep their shape too. Definitely a recipe I will use often.

In reply to Sarah. Maybe it's the butter? Some brands, like Becel Vegan, are extremely soft. Don't think they work for this. I used the same brand as Sam and it worked out perfectly! Not soft at all... I could even use a stamp to write things on my cookies.
