It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is just around the corner which means it's time for Christmas cookies. I love every type of Christmas cookie and since I have gone vegan a couple of years ago I have tried to veganize as many of my childhood favorites as possible. Butter cookies were a Christmas staple at our house and they are super easy to make. To make them vegan you don't really have to change that much, just swap dairy butter with a plant-based version and you are good to go. These vegan Christmas butter cookies are quickly whipped up and give you all the holiday feels. :)
