Sparkling Vegan Sugar Cookies

You don't really need a reason to have a cookie, am I right? That's a rhetorical question of course! In this case, the sugar cookie recipe I have for you is vegan and it can easily fit when you are in need of a parve (kosher) dessert too. Besides, you can never go wrong with a cookie.

These sugar cookies are very easy to make and are delicious, according to my family and co-workers who have tasted it. They're very much in demand!

I used purified coconut oil because I did not want them to have a coconut flavor, it might be less healthy but then again, we are talking about cookies so it wasn't considered a healthy food to even begin with. After a long time avoiding coconut oil because of its strong taste, I discovered that purified coconut oil has no coconut taste. Finally, a solution! In savory foods, I really can't stand the coconut flavor and when it comes to sweets, it is more acceptable but sometimes you just don't want it, you know? That's why purified coconut oil solves this problem.

I refer to this recipe as "sparkling sugar cookies" because of the extra sugar sprinkled on top, which gives it that spark, plus I like the look it gives the cookies. I think they are very festive and yet classic. If you want, you can of course decorate them differently, dip them in dark chocolate or add colorful sprinkles before baking, the sky is the limit!
