Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup softened vegan butter*
  • 2/3 cup powder sugar
  • 1/3 cup + 1 Tbsp JUST Egg
  • 1.5 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp almond extract optional
  • 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder

Instructions
 

  • Allow the vegan butter and Just Egg to sit at room temperature for approximately one hour. When ready, start preheating your oven to 325°F.
  • Place the softened butter into a large mixing bowl and sieve the powdered sugar over it.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together with a hand mixer until smooth.
  • Add Just Egg and extracts and beat with the hand mixer to combine until smooth.
  • Add sifted flour, salt, and baking powder in sections until dough forms.
  • Turn dough onto a large piece of plastic wrap and form two or three “loaves” that will fit into the barrel of the Spritz cookie press.
  • Load one cookie loaf into your Spritz press with the design plate of your choice. Press cookies onto an ungreased cookie sheet. If topping with sugar or sprinkles, do so after pressing the cookies and before placing them in the oven
  • Place the remaining cookie dough in the refrigerator until ready for use.
  • Bake cookies for 10 minutes until just turning slightly golden on the bottom.
  • Let cookies cool for 5 minutes before attempting to remove them from the cookie sheet.

Notes

*We used 2 sticks of Country Crock Plant Butter.
