Ingredients:

Cookie:

  • ยฝ Cup Softened Coconut Oil
  • ยฝ Cup Coconut Sugar
  • ยฝ Tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 2-4 Tbsp Vanilla Soy Mylk
  • 1 Flax Egg
  • 1 ยพ Cup Gluten Free Oat Flour
  • 2 Tbsp Tapioca Starch

  • ยผ Tsp Salt
  • ยผ Tsp Baking Powder
  • ยผ Tsp Baking Soda

Blue & White Chocolate Glaze:

Blue Spirulina Icing Sugar:

  • ยผ Cup Vegan Icing Sugar
  • 1 Tsp Blue Spirulina

Directions:

  1. Prepare Flax Egg (1 Tbsp Flax Seed Meal + 3 Tbsp Filtered Water)
  2. ย 
  3. Cream together coconut oil and coconut sugar until smooth. I did this in a speed mixer , but you can also do it by hand.
  4. ย 
  5. Add in flax egg, soy mylk, and vanilla extract. Start with 2 tbsp of soy mylk and see if you need more when you add in dry ingredients.
  6. ย 
  7. Sift all dry ingredients together.
  8. ย 
  9. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in small batches. Add more soy mylk if necessary. 2.5 Tbsp was the perfect amount for me.
  10. ย 
  11. Roll the dough into a ball. Cover. And refrigerate for 1 hour.
  12. ย 
  13. Grab two pieces of parchment paper. Place dough in between the two and roll out. I wanted mine to be quite thin (0.5 - 1 cm thick).
  14. ย 
  15. Press snowflake cutters into the dough to make cookies.
  16. ย 
  17. Place cookies on a parchment lined cookie sheet. Leave about 1-2 cm of room in between each cookie.
  18. ย 
  19. Pop the cookie sheets in the fridge for 15 to 30 minutes.
  20. ย 
  21. Preheat oven to 350 D F
  22. ย 
  23. When the oven is preheated, pop the cookies in the oven. Bake for 6 to 10 minutes. 7 minutes was perfect for me, but this will depend on how thick you make the cookies.
  24. ย 
  25. Let the cookies harden on the pan for about 30 minutes to an hour.
  26. ย 
  27. When the cookies are hardening, get a wire rack and place it over a baking sheet.
  28. ย 
  29. When the cookies are hard and cool. Start to melt your white chocolate and coconut oil over a double boiler. Once it is melted, add in your blue spirulina.
  30. ย 
  31. Depending on the look you are going for, dunk your cookie into the white chocolate glaze. For a half dip, dip half of the cookie into the mixture and then rest it on the wire rack. And for a full dip, dunk the whole cookie into the glaze and set it on the wire rack.
  32. ย 
  33. When the glaze is hardening, mix together icing sugar and blue spirulina.
  34. ย 
  35. Sift the icing sugar. For your half dipped cookies, sprinkle the icing sugar over the top of the other half of the cookie that is not covered in chocolate.
  36. ย 
  37. For the fully dipped cookies, sprinkle them with coconut flakes.
  38. ย 
  39. Pop in the fridge to completely set (2 hours to overnight). Enjoy!
