About the Author
The silly and sleepless Mistress McCutchan, otherwise known in the real world simply as Laura, created Morbid Outlook in August of 1992, while still a gothling in high school.

She is a full-time, senior web designer, DJ, and director of The Serpentina North Ensemble. She is vegan, but not one of the pushy ones. When not on the road or working like a maniac, she can be found becoming one with the couch, especially if Three’s Company is on.

VC is for Vegan Cookies
Mistress McCutchan
The winter has always been my favorite season: layers of toasty warm blankets, long coats, hot drinks and baking cookies. One of my goals this year is to experiment further with vegan desserts, and after some experimentation, this moist, decadent cookie recipe is a winner. Even non-vegans will enjoy these.
Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Drops
1/2 cup soy margarine
1 cup of creamy peanut butter
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup apple sauce
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups flour
3 tablespoon cocoa powder
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 generous handful of chocolate drops – I used Organic Chocolate Baking Drops by Dagoba available from Vegan Essentials in their “baking mixes” section.
Preheat the oven at 375° F. Mix all ingredients together. Spoon teaspoon-sized balls on to cookie sheet. I like adding an extra chocolate drop on top of the cookies; try it if you’re feeling creative. Bake for 11 to 13 minutes. Allow them to cool before devouring the entire plate!
