Calories 140 kcal
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup vegan butter room temperature
- ¼ cup powdered sugar
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tbsp brewed espresso strong and cooled
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- ⅛ tsp salt
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a tray with parchment—because sticking is a personal attack.
In a bowl, beat the vegan butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Add cornstarch and beat again like it wronged you.
Mix in vanilla and espresso. Then stir in flour and salt until a dough forms. Soft but not clingy—like an emotionally available partner.
Roll dough into a ½-inch thick slab. Cut into rectangles, circles, or whatever shape screams “I bake on purpose.”
Transfer to baking tray and chill for 10 minutes in the fridge. Let them reflect on their potential.
Bake for 22–25 minutes until edges turn golden and smug. Cool completely before transferring.
Arrange on a charcuterie board with dried fruit, chocolate chunks, and the aura of someone who has their life together.
