Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

½ cup organic sugar
¾ cup refined coconut oil, solid but not cold
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
½ teaspoon kosher salt
2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
½ teaspoon baking powder
5 tablespoons unsweetened non-dairy milk
3 cups organic powdered sugar
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
4 tablespoons water
blue gel food coloring
sprinkles, of your choice, for decorating

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the sugar and coconut oil with an electric hand mixer until fluffy.
Add the vanilla and salt, and stir with a rubber spatula to combine. Set aside.
Sift the flour and baking powder into a medium bowl.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the coconut oil mixture and stir to combine.
Gradually add the non-dairy milk and stir until a crumbly dough forms. Using your hands, knead the dough into a ball.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about ¼-inch (½ cm) thick.
Use snowflake cookie cutters to cut out shapes and transfer to the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches (5 cm) apart. Re-roll excess dough to cut out more shapes.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, until slightly golden around the edges .
Make the royal icing: Sift the powdered sugar into a large bowl. Add the vanilla and some of the water. Whisk until smooth, adding more water as needed to reach your desired consistency.
Transfer half of the icing to another bowl and add blue gel food coloring to one. Immediately transfer the icing to piping bags, or cover with plastic wrap. Do not leave the icing uncovered, as it will develop a film. If this happens, add a small amount of water and whisk to incorporate until the icing returns to your desired consistency.
Decorate the cookies with the royal icing and sprinkles. Let dry completely, at least 3-4 hours or overnight.
Enjoy!

Tips:

Chilling the dough before baking prevents spreading and helps the cookies hold their snowflake shape better.
Use a sharp knife or a cookie cutter to cut out the snowflake shapes precisely. If the dough is too warm, it may be difficult to cut clean shapes.
If you don't have a snowflake cookie cutter, you can use a round cookie cutter and then use a knife to cut out a small triangle from each side of the circle, creating a snowflake shape.
Bake the cookies until the edges are just beginning to brown. Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
Let the cookies cool completely before decorating. This will help prevent the icing from sliding off.
Use different colored sprinkles or nonpareils to decorate the cookies and make them festive.

Conclusion:

These vegan snowflake sugar cookies are a delicious and festive treat that is perfect for the holidays. They are easy to make and can be decorated in a variety of ways. With their delicate snowflake design and sweet, buttery flavor, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
