1cupraw cashewssoaked in water for a few hours or overnight
1/2teaspoonvanilla extract
1/2teaspooncinnamon
2tablespoonsmaple syrup
1/4cupalmond milkor other milk, may need a few tablespoons more of almond milk for consistency
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Mix all ingredients together in a large mixing bowl.
If the dough is wet and sticky, knead in additional flour, 1 tablespoon at a time until you have a soft dough that is not sticky. If dough is too dry, add a little more oil. (I did not need to add additional flour or oil)
Roll dough out, on a floured surface, to 1/4 inch thickness and cut with cookie cutters. Continue this process- rerolling out dough and cutting with cookie cutters, until you have used up all of the dough.
Transfer cookies to a parchment lined cookie sheet and bake for about 8-12 minutes.
While cookies are baking, blend all icing ingredients in a blender or food processor. Allow cookies to cool completely before decorating them with icing.
Notes
Cookies are great for making ahead and freezing. Get your holiday baking done ahead of time!
