I made these with what I had on hand: brown sugar instead of the muscovado (but will definitely try them with next time), half of a banana instead of a flax egg, and no parchment paper.

There must be milk maidens in fields churning it themselves. Also, the cows who are being milked for the butter, must be happy little cows, not living on a FACTORY farm, dancing in the fields to "Hey Diddle Diddle". Also, the milk maidens must also have some sort of fantastic butter magic and churn it in a special way so it's doesn't clog your arteries. Perhaps some respect for absolute fact, would be more essential.vegan101https://www.blogger.com/profile/11739069085674613282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28060897.post-58384236138654023002013-08-01T18:58:11.271-04:002013-08-01T18:58:11.271-04:00I double and triple-checked my ingredients, but my...I double and triple-checked my ingredients, but my cookies turned out to be very dry and crumbly.

In addition, it is intensely cruel to the animal. It's sad, but we can't think of cows on the open prairie eating grasses and enjoying life... an its an environmental issue as well as an ethical one. m. a. j. c.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01297354753210619590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28060897.post-40413905235256020142013-07-25T16:13:55.972-04:002013-07-25T16:13:55.972-04:00Do a little research on how we get those eggs and ...Do a little research on how we get those eggs and that butter before you make a statement like that to a specifically vegan recipe.

No reason to spew insults to those of us who don't. Also, there are many reasons a person may be vegan, including an allergy to milk protein.

YUM these turned out great!!

Please post more vegan recipes and fashion in the future. And, Jennifer Bailey, with all due respect, vegans don't eat fake food. We eat real food. Vegan butter is just made from plant oils as opposed to cow's breastmilk. :) But, for those who'd like to avoid nondairy butter options, can I recommend coconut oil? I use it in all my baking and it just adds that extra smooth richness. Delicious!
