These Red Velvet Crinkle Cookies are the perfect holiday dessert – they’re festive, fun, and Santa approved! They require no chilling, meaning less waiting time to devour them.
Preheat oven to 350° F. Line a baking tray with parchment paper, set aside. Prepare the two flax eggs (2 tbsp of flaxseed meal + 5-6 tbsp of water), set aside to set for 5-10 minutes. Mix until smooth.
In a large bowl, cream together softened vegan butter and both sugars, then add flax eggs, vanilla extract, and red food coloring.
In a medium bowl, sift together cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, and salt. Slowly add this dry mixture to the larger, wet mixture bowl. Mix until just combined.
Use a tablespoon to scoop out the cookie dough, roll into balls. Roll each ball in the confectioners sugar, then place on the prepared baking sheet an inch or two apart.
Bake for 10 minutes or until the cookies have cracked and are puffed up.
Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes and ENJOY ♥️
