Vegan Cardamom Shortbread

Adapted from Lord Krishna's Cuisine recipe.




== Pre Heat ==

Oven to 250 F.

== Ingredients ==

1/2 cup coconut oil
1/2 cup earth balance margarine

1/2 cup sugar
2 1/2 cup whole wheat flour

1 tbsp freshly ground cardamom (plus a few extra grinds)

1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp baking powder

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

== Do ==

Blend all together in blender.

Drop 1 tbsp of batter in a high walled bowl, spin a few times, transfer to silpat. (When I do this with other cookies, I put a bit of cinnamon sugar in the bowl, to get a thin crust of sugar on the top. This batter was so sweet, it didn't need it. But cardamom sugar would be a nice way to make this cookie even sweeter. )

== Cook ==

Bake 40 minutes.

== Watch ==

Batch of cookies disappear with your favorite Darjeeling Tea.
