Whew- we have come to the final chapter of our 5 cookbook reviews in 5 days. I'm ending the series with a little book called Vegan Cookies Invade Your Cookie Jar by Isa Chandra Moskowitz and Terry Hope Romero. Remember a little book about vegan cupcakes that came out a few years ago? And now we can't imagine a world without cupcakes? Well, it's time for cookies to get the same treatment. From the simple and old-fashioned, to the innovative, this book has tons and tons of recipes. There's even a section for wholesome cookies! I mean, come ON.
These have been all the talk with the kids these days- Mexican chocolate snickerdoodles. You think they'll be good. Then they turn out even better than that.
Lazy samoas. The Girl Scout recipe, simplified, veganized, and awesomerized.
Agave trailblazers- chock full of nuts and other goodies, but not too sweet.
And finally, these Irish Creme Kisses, delicious cookies that get a kick from just a hint of Irish whiskey. When I lived in the U.K., I may or may not have developed a thing for Irish whiskey...
And it may or may not have gotten a little out of hand...
Anyway... you can go here to get some sample recipes from the book- including the Mexican Snickerdoodles!

lovin' the whisky pics. i've made the mexican snickerdoodles before and yeah, they were amazing! I need to get my hands on that book.
I have too many cookbooks and so have been resisting buying this one, but drat, this review just talked me into it! :)
That last pic made me lol, then sent me into a coughing fit, which upset Sir Didymus who was sleeping across my arms. YOU SEE WHAT COOKIES WILL DO!?
MMm cookies..
This book is on my Christmas list.
Nice!!! I cannot wait to get this book. I should just order it today.
oh, you boozehound!
Hmmm....I wonder if you can make them with Scotch?
I already know that Scotch comes in handy for removing ticks.
Just in case you're ever stranded at Balmoral or somewhere and need to know this.
hey bazu!
I'm not a cookie person..but I love Jameson..is the only whisky tha I drink..and is the best!
love the blog!
Tchau!
There are so many great recipes in this book! I think I may have to bake cookies today.
These looks sooo yummy! I've been enjoying following your posts. Just went vegan and your blog has given me some great baking inspiration! Thanks :)
I made the Mexican Hot Chocolate Snickerdoodles, and the were the BEST cookies I have ever made, hands down! Can't wait to get the book!
This one is on its way, too. Great reviews Bazu. You made my cookbook shelf feeling a bit heavy :)
I just finally caved and bought this book! The irish creme were the ones to tip me over the edge. Jameson in cookies sounds like a wonderful idea...
Hooray for Vegan Cookies!
Every time I go to buy this at Borders, it's sold out. Grrrrr!
If it is half as good as their cupcakes I am sure the cookies are yummy.
LOL at you and Jameson. I haven't actually had it since I gave up Irish coffee's due to the cream on them. Now prefer a brandy coffee as tastes good black.
Ok, that settles it, I have to make those snickerdoodles. They look fantastic.
