This dessert screams summer. Have you ever had corn and blueberries together? If not, I highly recommend you try these bars! They are super simple to make and are also really unique. These vegan blueberry corn cookie bars are a spin on a corn cookie, but are closer to a shortbread in texture. Very addicting and borderline a savory treat. I love them warmed up slightly and then topped with a scoop of vegan vanilla ice cream. They are a perfect unique summer dessert for a crowd.
Vegan Brownies
This was a tough one to crack – for some reason vegan brownies are not very straightforward! This is my most tested recipe that I have been working out on and off for months. I wanted to create a recipe that didn’t use black beans, flax, bananas, apple sauce, tofu, or any other ingredients typically seen in most vegan brownie recipes. It was really important to me that this was accessible and the taste was amazing – you can not tell the difference between these and non-vegan versions. Typical vegan brownies are too dry, oily, crumbly, the list goes on. These are super gooey, so if you are in the market for something more cakey, I would look elsewhere.
Vegan Milk Bar Cornflake Marshmallow Cookies
Another cookie recipe, I know. I’m a cookie fiend, but I can’t help it. Last Christmas, my fiancé gave me Milk Bar’s cookbook. Milk Bar has very unique recipes that I have always found inspiration in. But when searching online to find veganized versions of these recipes, not much has turned up. I really wanted to make these cookies but as a vegan milk bar cornflake marshmallow cookie, but felt intimidated by the amount of substitutions.

Vegan Miso Brown Butter Cookies
These vegan miso brown butter cookies are very much a love letter to my favorite, but now gone bakery. I lived in walking distance from it years ago, and would walk over and get these cookies quite frequently. They were salty, and sweet, with just a hint of coffee. But unfortunately the bakery closed a few years back, so no more miso brown butter cookies. I have found a recipe for these cookies, and made quite a lot of tweaks to make them vegan.
Vegan Jam Shortbread Cookies
It’s Christmas cookie season and I’m all about this life. I love Christmas cookies, and wanted to punch up a spin on a classic cookie. This is a riff on a jam thumbprint cookie, but with a bit more vegan butter, and a crunchy spiced streusel topping. These vegan jam shortbread cookies are highly addictive, so make at your own caution.
Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies
I wanted to create a vegan chocolate chip cookies recipe that was super easy, was eggless and did not require a butter substitute. The only issue I was finding was that all the recipes I could find and put to test were lacking in flavor. I got to thinking and thought about my favorite cookie from a now closed bakery. It was a miso cookie with puffed rice, caramelized white chocolate, and coffee grounds. A weird combination but it was soooo good. So I looked to miso to put in these vegan chocolate chip cookies, and it did not disappoint.
