Chocolate Orange Cookies (Vegan + Nut Free)

The idea behind this recipe is a totally selfish one from my part. My boyfriend was enjoying some store bought chocolate orange cookies, and obviously they're filled with dairy and eggs so a total no-go for me, so I decided why not make my own?!

Winter Spice Crinkle Cookies (Vegan)

These cookies are fully inspired by my love for all things Autumnal/Christmas as well as the prettiest cookies I've made (my Chocolate Crinkle Cookies) - when I was making these it was very difficult not to eat all the dough, it just tasted so good!

Halloween Shortbread Biscuits (Vegan)

These biscuits are so easy to make, and super cute! Perfect for your halloween party or even as a little seasonal treat. I used my trusty Easy Vegan Shortbread recipe and the same icing recipe I used for my Vegan Gingerbread, another seasonal treat but it's not quite that time of year yet haha! 

Vegan White Chocolate and Raspberry Cookies

Since giving up dairy and eggs, I feel like I've really been missing the supermarket cookies you see her in the UK. I've made my standard chocolate chip, double chocolate - but I knew there was one more I needed to try (not oat and raisin, does anyone actually like them?!). Obviously White Chocolate and Raspberry!

Chocolate Chunk Cookies (Gluten Free + Vegan)

Gluten free baking used to scare me, being honest it still does, but I'm getting a lot more comfortable with it. I've managed to make a few gluten free things now, and as cookies are one of the easiest things to make (in my opinion), I thought I might as well try making them gluten free!

Christmas Reindeer Shortbread Biscuits (Vegan)

A few years ago I had some friends over for a movie night at Christmas time and my friend brought me some shortbread made to look like reindeer, with chocolate covered pretzel antlers and cute little red noses. I knew I needed to have a go at them and make myself some cute Christmas reindeer shortbread biscuits!

Vegan Gingerbread

To me, there's nothing that gets me in the festive mood more than making some gingerbread and having some Christmas music playing as I roll, cut and decorate! This is a really easy recipe for Vegan Gingerbread that is perfect to get kids involved in baking this Christmas, and something that the whole family can enjoy! 

Vegan Orange Biscuits

Now that we're getting into Autumn I thought it was time to start on the more seasonal flavours, such as cinnamon, ginger and orange! That's where this idea for these Orange Biscuits came from. If you love oranges and buttery biscuits with a sweet icing then these are the biscuits for you. These biscuits are refreshing and add a bit of seasonal cheer - a perfect tea-time treat!

Vegan Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

I think oatmeal cookies get a bad rep, especially with raisins in. They're perceived as the boring choice, almost always the last pack of bakery cookies you see in the supermarket after all the "fun" chocolatey ones have gone. Well, I think they deserve another shot, so here's my recipe for vegan oatmeal raisin cookies, which I hope you enjoy!

Vegan Jaffa Cakes

If you haven't heard of Jaffa Cakes before, firstly where have you been?! Secondly, they're the source of great debate. Let me explain, they're a cake (or biscuit), topped with marmalade and a layer of chocolate. They're pretty well known in the UK, and I bet nearly every British kid had a snack pack of these placed in their lunch box for school at one point or another. I decided to recreate these but make them vegan, I used dark chocolate and a simple vanilla sponge for the base, with a dollop or marmalade in the middle. 

Vegan Double Chocolate Chip Cookies

These soft and chewy vegan double chocolate chip cookies are something you must add to your "to-bake" list. Honestly, I'm surprised I didn't eat the whole batch in one sitting! They're really easy to make, don't take very long to bake and will definitely go down a treat with anyone you choose to share them with!

Easy Vegan Shortbread

Being able to make these buttery, crunch and delicious Vegan Shortbread biscuits with definitely make you happy - why you ask? Because they're perfectly snack sized, and if you're anything like myself, you'll find yourself grazing on these biscuits, eating "just one more" until suddenly there's only two biscuits left (a regular occurrence for me tbh).

Vegan Jammy Dodgers

With this recipe, no longer will you need to buy Jammie Dodgers from the "free from" section of the supermarket. This is a super easy recipe for making your own Jammy Dodgers at home, at a fraction of the cost! (Plus, these are better than any shop bought ones you could get 😉).

Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies

To be totally honest with you, the reason I made these cookies was simply that I wanted comfort food! Since turning vegan I've been unable to simply pop down to the shops and grab a bag of fresh baked cookies from the bakery section, I have to put more effort into getting my sugar fix!

Chocolate Crinkle Cookies - Vegan!

These cookies are a real eye-catcher - and they're tasty too! The outside is crunchy but the inside remains gooey and soft. I used to make these cookies all the time before I went vegan, however a main component of them is eggs, and I wasn't sure how they would turn out without that - this was also my first time using an "egg replacer", luckily it went well! 

Double Chocolate Chip Candy Cane Cookies ~ Vegan

As it's December, I thought it was time to start some Christmas themed baking, and what's more Christmassy than candy canes! 

Granny's Ginger Biscuits

 

As the recipe name suggests, this is a recipe given to me by my Granny - and I'm very thankful for it! These ginger biscuits are more like ginger snaps, with the syrup making the biscuits chewy and giving them a "snap". My Granny is one of the people who got me into baking, as a child I used to make these biscuits with her and I remember they would be stored in a tin beside the dining table - I was forever trying to sneakily take one without anyone noticing!

Salted Caramel Chocolate Chip Cookies - Non Vegan

 

I'll admit this straight away - before I made these cookies I had never tried anything salted caramel related. The craze for making salted caramel goodies has been around for a while now (okay a few years, I've been missing out) and I decided it was finally time for me to take the plunge and attempt my own salted caramel creation!

Sprinkle Sugar Cookies - Non Vegan

These cookies are soft and chewy, with the added fun of sprinkles in the mixture. In my opinion, they're the perfect sugar cookie; not too soft, but not too crunchy. I'm sure you are going to love these cookies as much as I do!

Neapolitan Cookies - Non Vegan

As a child one of my favourite ice cream flavours was neapolitan. The mix of chocolate (my favourite thing ever), strawberry and vanilla meant I was able to enjoy three of my favourite flavours, in ice cream! The idea for neapolitan cookies came to me whilst shopping at the weekend. I had just put packets of chocolate chips intended for regular chocolate chip cookies in my basket when I saw neapolitan ice cream. I thought to myself, "Imagine if I could make cookies with the neapolitan flavours in", and my next baking adventure was ready.
