🍪 four vegan cookies Santa NEEDS you to make

Published 3 months ago • 2 min read

Hey Reader,

Have we just discovered the greatest conspiracy of the 21st century?

Has it ever occurred to you that Cookie Monster and Santa Claus might be one and the same?

Cookie Monster Santa, as you might know, has a strict preference for two kinds of treats in his cookie-diet:

1️⃣ Cookies that are fun to make with your kids (he LOVES that!)

2️⃣ Vegan cookies that are just straight up delicious, and he wants to eat a whole damn plate of them.

In today's email, I think I am going to give you some pretty serious cookie-inspo. Strong contenders for both of those two halves of Cookie Monster's Santa's big cookie-shaped food pyramid will be represented.

​

🍪 ...Anyhoo, here are the glorious, crispy-edged cookies, without which Cookie Monster Santa will starve this year:

Vegan Gingerbread Cookies

Warm, gingery, and just the right level of chewy, these vegan gingerbread cookies taste like Christmas showed up early and brought Santa’s only form of sustenance, which turns out to be the same diet that Cookie Monster is on.

The Perfect Christmas Cookies To Decorate

Buttery tasting, golden, and ready for decorating with vegan royal icing! Made with simple ingredients, Santa Claus will NEVER bring coal to your home if you hook him up with these, and at office holiday gatherings? Your coworkers will be so extremely psyched!

What Green for Xmas? Matcha!

Soft, chewy matcha cookies with a delicate balance of earthy green tea and sweet vanilla. A quick, foolproof recipe that delivers bangin' flavor and can easily be upgraded to first-class with vegan marshmallows or white chocolate pieces.

The Ultimate Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookie Award Goes To...

Rich, chewy vegan chocolate chip cookies packed with warm melty chocolate chips and a hint of sea salt. No eggs, no fuss—just pure, classic cookie goodness that’s easy to make and even easier to devour!

I'm a Simple Fellah' & These are My Absolute Fave-raham Lincoln

Crisp on the edges, soft and chewy in the middle, Vegan Oatmeal Cookies are packed with sweet raisins and a hint of cinnamon. Simple, satisfying, and made with kitchen staples, these are my favorite cookies to have with afternoon tea or coffee.

I can't wait to hear from you if you make one of these recipes for Cookie Monster Santa. Please hit me up with any questions you have, or just to let me know how you and your sock-filling chiney man loved it!

Listen Reader, Mole. It's what's for dinner. Side note: this is NOT the mole in question. Mole is famous for being a savory thing made with chocolate in it. But what makes it crazy flavorful is the roasted dried chiles, charred tomatoes and garlic, fried almonds, and roasted spices. If you have never made it, you are about to lose your dmn mind, because it's hella tasty, and easier than you think. Because I live in a neighborhood with a ton of people from Puebla, I am sharing the style of...
