Ingredients
  

For the Shortbread Cookies:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup vegan butter cold and cubed
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

For the Coffee Cream Filling:

  • 3 tbsp vegan cream cheese
  • 1 tsp instant coffee powder
  • 2 tbsp powdered sugar
  • 1 tbsp plant-based milk almond or oat

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line your tray with parchment like a kitchen goddess.
  • In a bowl, mix flour, sugar, and salt. Add vegan butter and blend till it’s sandy and dramatic.
  • Stir in vanilla extract.
  • Knead gently to form dough. Roll out to ¼-inch thick and cut with your fave cutter.
  • Bake for 12 minutes. Cool completely, like your emotional walls.
  • Mix cream cheese, coffee powder, sugar, and plant milk until smooth.
  • Spread filling between two cookies. Press together gently.
  • Store in an airtight container, not your purse—crumbs are betrayal.

💅 Tips for Drama-Free Flavor

  • Chill the dough before rolling for less mess, more sass.
  • Use dark roast coffee for intense flavor (and feelings).
  • Add a pinch of cinnamon to the filling for extra flair.
Now go bake, sip something caffeinated, and feel like a domestic deity with sass and snacks. ☕💅🍪
