I really need to work on my Christmas tree decorating skills
Happy Holidays, everyone!! Tis the season for presents and cookies and Christmas lights on all the things! oh, and, like, family and friends and stuff. But Christmas lights! and Cookies!!
Each year, I spend most of December in a Grinch-like funk over my dislike for Christmas. I usually warm to it the week of Christmas but it certainly is not a month long celebration for me. This year, though, I have found myself kind of into it. I don’t know what has come over me. All the pretty lights are making my Grinch-y little heart grow three sizes. My room currently has 2 kinds of purple lights strung around it and I love it! The only reason I don’t have more is because I’m still temping. Otherwise, I would have all the purple light. And upgraded my tiny little tree.
So, in honor of this new-found Christmas cheer, I decided to do a little celebration here on Wicked Vegan. The Twelve Days of Christmas Cookies! There’s nothing better then a well-made cookie and there is absolutely no reason that during the holidays, vegans can’t share in this tradition. So, starting tomorrow afternoon, I will be doing 12 straight days of vegan cookies. I am SO excited!! I have fun seasonal ones in store, some healthy varieties for those who don’t want to go into a sugar coma, some no-bake options, quick varieties you can whip up in no time and some that are a little more intensive but well worth the effort. So come back tomorrow to see the first recipe I have to share.
Until then, here is a round-up of all the cookies from Wicked Vegan that would be great for upcoming holiday parties:
Chai Spiced Cookies with pumpkin (the pumpkin is subtle. I think you can get away with it for a holiday treat)
Chewy Ginger cookies (hands down the best ginger cookies I have ever tasted. These are one of my top 5 favorite cookies)
Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Peanut Butter Cups
Double Dark Chocolate Craisin Cookie (with pecans)
Deep Dish Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie (the one I most frequently make in my house)
Fruit and Chocolate Dessert Pizza on a Snickerdoodle Cookie Crust (it has fruit. Clearly, it’s healthy)
Peanut Butter Triple Chocolate Cookies (sprinkle some holiday sprinkles on these after you dunk them in chocolate and they will be adorable!)
Whole Wheat Cherry Pecan Cookies
Yoga Cookies, for a healthier option
Stay tuned for more delicious treats! And if you have any suggestions on what you would like to see in the next twelve days, leave a comment below and I will do my best to make it. Happy Friday!!
