On Friday night I had some friends over for halloween and baked a whole load of vegan treats, including these spooky cookies! People are usually sceptical about vegan baking, so luckily they went down well! Obviously you can use this recipe to bake cookies in all shapes and sizes - they don't have to be spooky.
