This year I hosted some of my out of town relatives for Christmas. And being the good hostess that I am, I wanted to bake them a festive treat. I chose white chocolate Craisin cookies because I like how the color reflects the holiday season. They turned out crispy on the outside, and chewy on the inside.
White Chocolate Craisin Cookies
1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp ground sea salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 cup Earth Balance (or other vegan margerine)
2/3 cup brown sugar
Egg replacer equivilant to 1 egg (ie 1 1/2 tsp egg replacer + 2 tbsp water)
1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/4 cup Craisins
1/4 cup vegan white chocolate chips
Combine flour, sea salt, and baking soda in a medium-sized mixing bowl. In a seperate mixing bowl, cream together Earth Balance/margerine and brown sugar. Add "egg" and vanilla, and beat until smooth. Add dry ingredients to the wet, and mix well. Fold in Craisins and white chocolate chips.
Using a cookie scoop, drop balls of dough on a slightly greased baking pan. If you don't have a cookie scoop, you can use a regular spoon to scoop the dough out, and then roll the dough in the palm of your hands to form a ball. Flatten each dough ball slightly before placing them in the oven.
Bake at 375 for 8-10 minutes. Cool slightly before removing from pan. Makes about 24 cookies, depending on size.
