Chewy Chocolate Jam Cookies
One of my friends on Facebook posted her variation of the Chewy Chocolate Raspberry Cookies in Veganomicon: The Ultimate Vegan Cookbook. This is my adaptation of her adaptation.
I’ve now made this with 3 types of preserves – Lingonberry, blueberry, and raspberry (a special sneaky batch while the berry-allergic child was out of [...]
Snowdrops – chocolate chip meringues
These are a favorite holiday cookie from my childhood, my Nana made them every year. I was so sad when we went dairy-free, as it was then impossible to find dairy-free mini chocolate chips. Thank goodness for Enjoy Life chocolate chips! You can also make them with regular sized chocolate chips, but [...]
Gingerbread Cookies
Adapted from my friend Sue’s tried-and-true recipe, but adapted to be gf/df/sf/and rolling-out-free. These are divine.

1 1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 cup gf flour
1/2 cup oil

1 tsp salt
2 tsp [...]
Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
This is one of our all time favorites, because this is a super-easy, super-adaptable recipe. It doubles quite well, too. If you can’t use peanuts, other nut and seed butters work fine. And if you can’t do eggs, egg substitutes have worked well here too.
This recipe is gluten & dairy free and [...]

Very yummy. This came from a taste in my head and an OJ cookie recipe in a book I was reading. Many failed adaptations later, here it is.

Yum Yum no-bake Cookies

In a large, microwave-safe bowl melt together:
