Cooking Steps
1. Preheat the oven to 180 Β°C (350 Β°F). Position the oven rack in the center for even baking.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine 3 cups (360 g) of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon of ground nutmeg. Whisk the dry ingredients until well mixed and set aside.
3. In another mixing bowl, using a hand mixer or stand mixer, cream together 1 cup (227 g) of softened unsalted butter, 1 cup (200 g) of granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup (100 g) of brown sugar on medium speed for about 2-3 minutes until the mixture is light and fluffy.
4. Add 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract and 60 ml (1/4 cup) of plant-based milk to the butter mixture. Mix on low speed until just combined.
5. Gradually incorporate the dry flour mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until the dough comes together.
Avoid over-mixing to guarantee a tender cookie.
6. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to 1 hour. This helps the flavors meld and makes it easier to handle.
7. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to portion the chilled dough into balls, placing them about 5 cm (2 inches) apart on the prepared baking sheet.
8. Optional: Add your choice of toppings such as sprinkles or icing on top of each cookie dough ball before baking.
9. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes. The cookies should be lightly golden on the edges and soft in the center.
The aroma will be fragrant and cinnamon-y, with a slight crisp texture at the edges while still soft inside.
10. Remove from the oven and allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
11. Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature. Enjoy your festive treats!

Tips on plating and presentation
Plating your eggless Christmas cookies beautifully can elevate their appeal and make them even more delightful to share.
I like to use colorful festive plates or trays, and adding a sprinkle of powdered sugar or edible glitter can make them pop.
Arrange the cookies in neat stacks, or create a charming display with some seasonal decorations.
