I can’t believe we are due any day now. As a whole I haven’t had a ton of cravings, but one thing is for sure, all my traditional cravings were intensified!!

 

One of my all time favorite combos, is lemon and rosemary!! 

 

You typically find herbs only being utilized in savory dishes. However, they can truly take an everyday dessert recipe and turn it into a fab recipe in minutes. When it comes to summer concept, I’m all about the citrus fruits. While not the majority, I find that I have more of a preference for citrus or fruit forward desserts as chocolate can be too overwhelming to my tastebuds.

 

Needless to say, I love these vegan soft baked Lemon Rosemary Cookies!!

  1. Can I sub dried rosemary ? It’s hard to find fresh where I live

    1. Hi Kerrie! You absolutely can. Since dried herbs are more powerful I would cut down to 1 1/2 tbsp or 1 tbsp depending on your preferences. Let me know how they come out!

  2. If I want to make smaller cookies (1-2 tbsp) should I cut the cook time in half? How can I tell when they’re “done”?

  3. Made these yummy cookies and was pleasantly surprised at how good they are! My dough was SUPER runny but it still baked fine and the cookies weren’t too thin (probably just should’ve left it in the fridge longer). The rosemary flavor isn’t very strong. The glaze is delicious but requires quite a bit more lemon juice than was listed

    1. Thanks for the feedback. I always add more rosemary, but listed less in case it was too much for readers. I’ll increase the amount! The glaze you can always play around with to create the desired amount.

    Question- does the batter really use powdered sugar as listed, or should it be cane or granulated sugar? Seems odd to use powdered sugar in the batter.

      I completely agree! However, these are soft baked cookies and actually require powered sugar! A must try!
