Do you think I could I sub honey for molasses in this recipe and produce desirable results? For science!! This is the only vegan cookie recipe I have ever seen that looks like it will pass the rigorous tests of my chocolate chip cookie snobbery :) Thanks a bunch, love and light

Hi misfitcupcake, the molasses are in the cookies to build on chewiness and add depth of flavor. I don't think honey would be as effective on both fronts but it is about 80% fructose which will hold onto moisture and increase chewiness by a moderate amount. Just not as much as molasses theoretically. They'll still probably turn out good with it though! -but obviously not be vegan.

"Was looking for a nut free, vegan cookie recipe to make and bring to meet my Boyfriends Parents...Let's just say they were all beyond delighted, and his Sisters Boyfriend who has an allergy to eggs was over the moon that he could eat them and proclaimed them as "Glorious" cookies!! Thank you so much for putting such effort into making this phenomenal recipe! The family I nanny for was also so elated (they were my taste testers) that they insisted we make another batch the following day! "

"I've made this a few times and have used pea milk instead (the guy who brought us Method cleaning products is now doing vegan mylk). I am trying to avoid soya, and found that using only coconut vinegar instead of apple cider vinegar really gives a mild taste (my stepdaughter, who is almost 9, found the apple cider vinegar version too vinegary). I too am trying to cut the salt, as I used to buy unsalted butter before, but overall, a fantastic butter/margarine alternative. Thanks for this! :)"

"Unfortunately sauteing with your butter recipe ends up in unwanted clumps due to xantham gum being fried at high temperatures. Perhaps you could use something that melts. You are right about the acidic taste. The vinegar flavor ruins the butter experience if you were to spread it on bread to be eaten directly. Lemon juice has the same effect. Moreover, I did try organic coconut oil which resulted in the best flavor. But, as I am sure everyone knows, organic oil is extremely expensive. It is also interesting to note that this butter for some reason will collect mold rather quickly if not used soon enough. Freezing only retards the mold growth. How long do you hold your butter before using? Have you tried other neutral tasting acids with..."
