| Vegan Coconut Sugar Cookies |
These delicious cookies are a simple twist on my
vegan chocolate sugar cookie recipe. I needed an easy, inexpensive party favor to give out for a baby "sprinkle" party I am throwing this weekend and I thought a healthy and simple sugar cookie with blue sprinkles (it's a boy!!) would be perfect. The expectant mother is Brazilian so I figured the tropical coconut flavor would be a hit (she loves coconut), and who doesn't love cookies? I filled cute little containers that I found on sale after Christmas with the small cookies and decorated them with ribbon and stickers, as well as an ingredient list. I hope the extra effort and healthful creativity that went into this party gift makes it even that more special for all of the guests.
