Mock Magic Carpet Cookies

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at U Penn chapter.

These popular cookies are a hit at Magic Carpet food truck, where I often see people throwing singles in exchange for the desirable vegan treats. Well, I have good news for you: now you can make them at home! Try this recipe to make a healthy, simple mock-cookie so that you can save your dollar for the day and have your house smelling pretty damn good. We’ve made them two ways (banana chocolate chip and raspberry coconut), but feel free to add your own mix-ins and substitutions.
