When you feel nostalgic for that warm cinnamon sugar cookie from your childhood, and to experiment by creating a vegan/gluten- free version and then decide to make an ice-cream sandwich out of them. Well, my friends… this happens to be the fruits of that wonderful experiment. And it was a good one. They are moist and fluffy in the inside with a slightly crispy outside. Delicious!
They take about 5 times longer to make than they do to watch them disappear. And they don’t take too long to make!
