Equipment
- Electric hand mixer or stand mixer
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Baking sheet
- Parchment paper or silicone baking mat
- Cookie scoop or spoon
- Cooling rack
Ingredients
Wet Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup vegan butter (softened) Or 1 stick
- 3/4 cup granulated cane sugar
- 1/4 cup non-dairy milk such as almond, soy, or oat
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp almond extract optional, for flavor depth
Dry Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
For Rolling (Optional):
- 2-3 tbsp granulated sugar
Instructions
- Preheat Oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Cream the Butter & Sugar:
- In a large bowl, beat the vegan butter and sugar together until light and fluffy (about 1-2 minutes).
Add Wet Ingredients:
- Mix in the non-dairy milk, vanilla extract, and almond extract until smooth.
Combine Dry Ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
Mix It Together:
- Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet, mixing until a dough forms. It should be soft but not sticky.
Scoop & Roll:
- Use a spoon or cookie scoop to roll dough into 1-inch balls. Optionally, roll each ball in sugar for that classic sugar cookie sparkle.
Bake:
- Place cookies 2 inches apart on the baking sheet. Gently press each ball down slightly. Bake for 9–11 minutes, or until edges are just golden.
Cool:
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
