- 1 cup Coconut Flour, Plus More For Dusting
- 1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1/4 teaspoons Salt
- 1/2 cups Earth Balance Vegan Buttery Sticks, Softened At Room Temperature

- FOR THE ICING:

- For the cookies:

- 2. In the bowl of an electric stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat butter and sugar until pale and fluffy.
- 3. Beat in the egg and vanilla.
- 4. Reduce the speed to low, and with the machine running, gradually add the flour mixture, mix until combined.
- 5. Shape the dough into a large disk and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 45 minutes.
- 6. Preheat oven to 325u0b0F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- 7. Transfer the dough to a working surface, covered with either almond flour or coconut flour (your choice).
- 8. Roll the dough out until it is about 1/8 inch thick. Use a bunny-shaped cookie cutter to cut out cookies.
- 9. Space 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet. Re-roll scraps and cut out. Refrigerate until firm, about 15 minutes.

- For the icing:
- 1. Place the powdered sugar in a large mixing bowl.
- 2. Add the food coloring and coconut oil. Mix into a paste.
- 3. Add enough water so that the powdered sugar is completely dissolved, but is still thick, about 1 tablespoonful. You don't want a runny icing.
- 4. Ice the cooled cookies.
