My grandmother's sugar cookies were sort of a cross between cookies and

scones. They were my favorite sweet when I was little. They don't taste

(or look) like other sugar cookies, but since that's she called them,

that's what I'm calling my attempt at veganizing them :)

 

Grandma's Sugar Cookies

Makes 24 cookies

 

5 tablespoons + 1 teaspoon flax seeds

1 cup water

6 cups of whole wheat pastry flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

8 oz. Tofutti " cream cheese "

A few drops of vanilla

2 cups sugar

cinnamon (or cinnamon and sugar) to sprinkle on top

 

Preheat oven to 350 F. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.

 

Grind flax seeds, and blend them with water until gloppy. Set aside.

 

Thoroughly mix the flour and baking powder. Add Tofutti and mix briefly

until dough is more or less uniformly crumbly. Make a well and add flax

seed/water mixture, vanilla, and sugar. Mix just until everything is

evenly distributed. (Don't overmix.)

 

Make dough into balls and flatten to about 2 inches in diameter and 3/8

to ½ inch high. (Leave about an inch between cookies.) Sprinkle with

cinnamon. Bake for 25 minutes (until the edges brown). Remove cookies

from pans and cool on racks.
