#3 Vegan Christmas Cookies
Rolling into the holiday season with a batch of Vegan Christmas Cookies that are as joyful to make as they are to eat! These plant-based delights, featuring GOOD GOOD Jam, will have you singing carols in the kitchen. So, grab your rolling pin, sprinkle some flour, and let the cookie magic unfold.
Prep Time: 20 Minutes (excluding chilling time)
Cook Time: 10 Minutes
Yields: 25 sandwich cookies
Course: Dessert
Ingredients:
- ½ cup of vegan butter, softened
- 2/3 cup of white granulated sugar or sugar alternative
- Pinch of salt
- 1 ¼ tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp vanilla extract or paste
- 3 tablespoons of water, room temperature
- 1 7/8 cup of all-purpose flour
- Powdered sugar for dusting
- 1/3 cup and 1 tablespoon of a GOOD GOOD spread in the flavor of your choice.
- 2 inch round cookie cutter
Instructions:
- In a medium-sized bowl or in the bowl of your stand mixer with the paddle attachment, cream the softened butter, sugar, salt, baking powder, and vanilla together until slightly paler and fluffier. No need to whip in a ton of air; we’re mostly relying on baking powder for lift, not air. You can do this by hand, with an electric hand mixer, or in a stand mixer.
- Add the water and mix until it’s incorporated.
- Add the flour and mix on low speed until it’s fully incorporated; careful not to overmix.
- Cover the dough or wrap it up and refrigerate it for at least 1 hour or up to 2 days.
- When you’re ready to start rolling it out, preheat your oven to 350°F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment or silicone baking mats.
- To roll it out, you can either do it in between 2 pieces of parchment or on a lightly floured surface.
- Roll it out to a bit less than ¼ inch thick and cut out your cookies. Make sure you have an equal amount of whole cookies and cookies with the center cut out. I used a 2 inch round cookie cutter, which yielded 25 sandwich cookies.
- Place the cookies on the baking sheets with a bit of space between them; they won’t spread too much. Bake them for about 10 minutes. They’ll still be white, but the entire surface should be matte and set.
- Let them cool for 5 minutes on the tray before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once they’ve cooled, dust all the top cookies with powdered sugar. Place about 1 tsp of GOOD GOOD Jam on the bottom cookie (on the side that was in contact with the baking sheet) and sandwich it with the dusted cookie. Repeat until you’ve assembled all your sandwich cookies.

They’re now ready to serve!
