Shortbread CookiesIngredients (use vegan versions): 3/4 lb (aka 3/4 tub) of vegan margarine
1 cup of sugar (a very fine grain)
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 1/2 cups flour ( I used white but I'm going to try it with Spelt next)
1/4 teaspoon salt
Directions:Cream vegan margarine and sugar together.
Add vanilla and cream some more.
Add flour then salt and mix till just mixed.
Turn out onto a floured counter and press into a disc shape. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Now preheat the oven to 350 Fahrenheit 180 celcius. After refrigeration, roll dough out to about 1/2 inch thick. Cut out into desired shapes and back for 20-25 minutes.
This is a really good basic recipe. You can dip the finished product in chocolate or roll them in cinnamon and sugar before baking. I am currently cutting them into tombstone shapes so they can top a vegan pumpkin chocolate cheesecake for Halloween! Enjoy and Hurray
