Cook Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

• 2 1/2 cups flour
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 2/3 cup sugar + 1/4 cup
• 1 cup vegan margarine, pre-softened
• 1/3 cup lemon zest
• 1/4 cup silken tofu
• 3 tbsp lemon juice, preferably fresh

Preparation:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Sift together the flour, baking soda and salt in a medium sized bowl.

In a separate large bowl, beat together the 2/3 cup sugar, vegan margarine and lemon zest until smooth and fluffy. Add the tofu and whip until well mixed, then add the flour, baking soda, and salt. In a large bowl, beat the margarine, the remaining 1 cup of sugar, the remaining 1 tsp. of lemon oil, and the zest with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add the tofu and beat until well-blended.

Add the flour mixture to the margarine mixture and stir until well combined.

Form dough into one-inch balls, and roll into the 1/4 cup sugar until well coated. Flatten slightly, and bake for 8-10 minutes, until lightly golden brown.
