I'd like to make some vegan sugar cookies for easter that are super soft and yummy, that I can make cut outs with.

What are your favorite, tried and true, sugar cookie recipes??

TIA

We're not vegan but my dd is allergic to milk and eggs so I've altered many of our baked goods to be vegan appropriate. It uses regular sugar, I don't think thats a problem with a vegan lifestyle. Here's the recipe with my alterations:

3/4c.shortening (I use 1/2c. coconut oil, 1/4c. vegan margarine)
1.c sugar
2 eggs (3T. veg. oil, 3T water, 2t. baking powder)
1 t. vanilla
2.5 c. flour (extra for rolling)
1 t. baking powder
1 .t salt

- Mix thoroughly shortening, sugar, eggs and vanilla. Cream together until creamy.

- Blend in flour, baking powder and salt. Add extra flour until dough is a good rolling consitancy.

- Refridgerate for an hour, covered. Heatoven to 400*. Roll the dough (I always roll it just a little thicker than I think it should be). Place on ungreased cookie sheets, bake for 6-8 minutes until the edges are just golden.

- Cool and decorate.

I hope you enjoy them! We love them, I make them at every holiday.

They aren't terribly sweet but when you frost them, they're perfect. And they aren't crispy. I don't like crispy sugar cookies. I make these for every holiday party at my son's school and people always rave about them.
I am going to try these tomorrow! DS1 loves making cookies with cookie cutters.

I have a sugar free, vegan recipe I will post tomorrow.

Thanks! I'll try those next time! I have them saved in my vegweb recipe box now


I just ended up veganizing a recipe from an old 70's cookbook MIL had, and they turned out perfect!
