Recipe: Vegan Jumble Cookies

I couldn't find the Whole Food recipe online. Since I don't know if this is a vegetarian or regular recipe you are looking for - I'll include one of each for you to experiment with. Good luck and please share your results with us.

VEGAN JUMBLE COOKIES

1 cup (2 sticks) softened soy margarine
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
equivalent of 2 eggs (1 Tbsp egg replacer and 2 Tbsp water)
1 Tbsp vanilla extract
2 tsp almond extract
2 1/4 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup dried fruit (cranberries, cherries, and currants all work well)
1 1/2 cups granola (preferably tasty granola like raspberry or something)
1 cup chocolate chips
1/2 cup nuts (almonds or walnuts or both)
Cocoa powder to taste

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease cookie sheets.

Cream together the margarine and sugars. Add the egg replacer and extracts, and beat well.

In a separate bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, and salt together, then slowly add to the wet ingredients while mixing. After that, mix in the dried fruit, granola, chocolate chips, nuts, and chocolate powder (all of which are optional). The amounts of all this stuff should be varied according to individual taste; these measurements are just loose suggestions. Put on greased cookie sheet.

Bake at 350 degrees F (preheated) until done, about 10 minutes cooking times vary quite a bit depending on individual ovens and how well done you like your cookies. When you take them out they should still look undercooked if you want soft cookies.

Makes about 3 dozen cookies
