SO HOW'D IT GO?
I made these this evening and they are GREAT! I haven't heard of vegan white sugar, and didn't have any brown sugar, so I used all FL Natural Organic sugar. They did take nearly 30 mins to bake, but they were so worth the wait. I love my cookies crispy, and haven't had much luck getting that texture with vegan recipes, so I so happy, have already eaten three, and trying hard not to eat any more until tomorrow....I will probably be getting up in the middle of the night for a cookie jar invasion.
Awesome recipe - we're having to restrain ourselves from eating the whole tray!. I made a half batch of these with about 1.5 teaspoons of apple sauce as an egg replacer, and also added about 30mL of soy milk as the dough seemed a little dry, and they're excellent. My only disagreement with the recipe is that I agree that they need to be cooked for a little longer than what's stated. Otherwise... yum.
