VEGAN SUNFLOWER BUTTER COOKIES
The luxuriant taste of sunseeds in these cookies will make you forget that peanut butter cookies ever existed! (Well, temporarily...) **Please note, I have put peanut butter in the ingredients list because the fat & overall calories will be more accurate, for those who need to know nutrition facts ;) These are so healthy and simple. It's a recipe I modified from one of Dreena Burton's in "Vive le Vegan." Hope you enjoy!

- In a separate bowl, combine the sunflower seed butter and all other ingredients, and whisk well. Add to the dry ingredients, and stir 'em up.
- Spoon the batter in roughly circular blobs (heehee) onto a baking pan lined with parchment paper. (They flatten quite a bit!) Mark them with a fork that's been dipped in icewater after each cookie.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, just till nice and golden on the bottom.
- After they rest on the sheet for a couple minutes, remove to a cooling rack. But they're good warm or cold ;).
- Finally: these would be AMAZING with semi-sweet chocolate chips or dried cherries. Let me know if you try that!
