Vegan sugar cookies

I came across this sugar cookie recipe a few months ago and it is goo-ood. It's from another couples' blog so I don't have any copyright info or anything...they didn't either. The cookies are really good and the icing is even better (I think, anyway). To me they aren't too much different from a regular sugar cookie. So, here are the recipes...

Vegan Sugar Cookies
1 C Vegan Margarine (can be found at the health food store)
1 C sugar
2 Whole Egg Replacers
1 Tsp. Vanilla extract
3 3/4 cup AP flour
2 Tsp baking powder
1/4 C Tofutti (vegan cream cheese...so good)

Preheat oven to 350
Cream marg. and sugar
Stir in egg and vanilla
Gradually add flour, baking powder and tofutti
Form dough into a roll and refrigerate for a couple of hours
Roll out dough to 1/4" thick
Cut shapes with cutters
Place them about 1" apart
Bake about 12-14 minutes or until edges are golden

Vegan Sugar cookie icing
2 cups 10X (confectioners) sugar
6-8 tsp soymilk
4 tsp light corn syrup
1/2 tsp vanilla or almond extract
food coloring of choice

Mix together until smooth
Dip tops of cookies face down into icing and allow icing to drip back into bowl

*if the icing is too think add more corn syrup a little at a time

I did these for a baby shower and used a duck cookie cutter...too cute! Perfect for the holidays! Enjoy...
