These Vegan Coconut Lemon Cookies Are the Perfect Way to End Your Summer
I'm a big fan of ice cream sandwich cookies. You know the ones that you see all over Instagram? It's kinda like you get to eat two desserts and nobody will judge you for it (#winning). These coconut lemon cookies are like the healthy version of a sandwich cookie. They're vegan, refined sugar-free, and 100% raw (aka. you just stick 'em in the freezer).
I did a lot of recipe testing for these cookies. Like, a lot — there was more creative swearing and failed experiments than I plan to admit (did you know that coconut milk and lemon juice curdle together and look like gross cottage cheese? Well, now you do). But finally, I nailed it. And you know what? These coconut lemon cookies are worth the struggle. Bring on the lemon-y goodness.
