Ingredients
Scale
- 1 Cup Butter or Coconut Oil to make it dairy free
- 1 Cup Coconut Sugar (you can use regular white sugar)
- 1 Flaxseed Egg (Mix 1 tbsp flaxseed meal + 3 tbsp water or use commercial egg replacer )
- 1 ½ tsp Vanilla

Instructions
- Mix the butter, sugar, and egg together until it’s creamed.
- While stirring add flaxseed egg.
- When it’s well mixed add flour, baking powder and salt.
- If needed add 1 tbsp of water. I find when I am not using a real egg I need to do this.
- Divide the Dough in half and wrap in plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for 2 – 12 hours.
- When ready, preheat the oven to 375 F.
- Roll out cookies and cut them out with your favourite design. Get creative!
- Bake for 6 – 8 mins. Watch carefully so you don’t get cookies with dark edges.
- While they cool on a baking rack, you can start making the icing.
- Note if using coconut sugar the cookies will turn out a little darker.
