Cookies for camping

I leave this afternoon to go camping and since I had the day off, I decided to make some cookies for my trip.  I bought some Dandies Marshmallows for the campfire and white chocolate chips for the cookies at Food Fight! today.  I am not a big chocolate fan, so the white chocolate chips are especially great for me.  I also made some Artichoke & White Bean Sauce from my last post for sandwiches and a dip.  


Vanilla Fan Cookies

1 cup Unrefined Cane Sugar
2 Tb. Earth Balance Margarine*
3 Tb. Vegetable Oil
1/3 cup Almond Milk
1 tsp Vanilla
1 3/4 cups Unbleached White Flour
1/2 tsp Baking Powder
1/2 tsp Baking Soda
pinch of salt
1/2 cup vegan White Chocolate Chips**

Cream together the sugar, oil and margarine.  Add the vanilla and almond milk and blend well.  Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.  Blend until barley combined, then add the chocolate chips and blend until combined.

Place by the double tablespoon on a grease cookie sheet.  Bake at 350 degrees for about 12 minutes.  Makes a dozen cookies.

*I used the new soy free Earth Balance in the red tub since I am trying to cut down on soy.
**Regular chocolate chips or vegan peanut chips can be added in this recipe since the white chocolate chips are hard to find.

Having roasted marshmallows for the first time in over 10 years was amazing! I ended up roasting the Dandies mashmallows and putting them between the cookie. So good!
