Dunk these yummy vegan cookies into a glass of your favorite flavor of soy milk or crumble them atop a bowl of vegan ice cream for a tasty vegan dessert.
White whole wheat flour lends whole grain goodness without making cookies dense while the addition of slivered almonds gives the cookies a lovely nutty crunch. Package up a few extra batches and give them away as delectable vegan holiday gifts.
