Ingredients

1 cup Dairy-Free Butter (Unsalted) softened at room temperature (note 1)
⅔ cup Sugar
2 cups All-Purpose Flour

Optional

1 teaspoon Baking Soda
2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 325 °F (160 °C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper. Lightly oil paper with cooking oil spray. Set aside.
In a mixing bowl or the bowl of your stand mixer using the paddle attachment, beat softened vegan butter and sugar until pale and creamy.
Sift in flour and beat on low speed to incorporate. The dough should look crumbly, but if you press it together with your hand, it will become smooth. If it is too dry, simply mix in 1-2 teaspoons of almond milk or milk of choice until you can gather the crumbly dough into a soft dough.
Grab tablespoons of dough, roll between hands, and release on the baking sheet, leaving a thumb space between each cookie.
Use the back of a glass to press down the cookie flat.
Bake the cookies at 325 °F (160 °C) for 14-16 minutes until the top and sides are dry, they shouldn't get golden and stay white.
Let the cookies cool down on the baking sheet. Don't touch them for at least 15 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack. They firm up gently as they cool down.

Notes

Note 1: We always bake with plant-based butter or margarine. However, if you eat dairy, butter works.

Note 2: You can also use brown sugar.

Note 3: We didn't try gluten-free flour on this. The recipe won't work with almond flour. Use my almond flour sugar cookie recipe for a gluten-free option.
