Vegan Crispy Cream Cheese Cookies
Easy Vegan Crispy Cream Cheese Cookies recipe. These cookies are ready in under 15 minutes, they make a great last minute dessert idea.
It has become slightly cooler here in Wisconsin.
Cooler as in sweater weather cool. Which means that I am going to make the most of this situation as best as I can. And use it to make maybe the last baking recipe for the summer. We will see.
And since I need to use up some cream cheese and various stale cereal that I have around the house, these Vegan Crispy Cream Cheese Cookies were meant to happen.
What you need to make Vegan Crispy Cream Cheese Cookies
This basically uses all of my baking essentials. All you need is:
- flour
- baking powder
- salt
- Rice Krispies Cereal
- vegan butter
- vegan cream cheese
- sugar
That's it!
Variations & Substitutions
Of course, if you do not have vegan cream cheese or vegan butter, these can be made non-vegan if you like.
Also, if you wanted to jazz this recipe up a little bit, I would definitely suggest that you add in some mix-ins. Whatever you have on hand. Chocolate chunks work great in here. I have also done mini eggs for Easter, but honestly anything that needs using up in your pantry would work great. This recipe is extremely versatile, so get creative with it!

I was tired of the same old cookie recipes...This one is refreshingly different. It's the perfect choice for when you want a unique and delightful dessert experience, and it uses leftovers. Win win!
Agree! Gotta love recipes that use leftovers 😉
This recipe was so easy to prepare. I needed a cookie recipe to bring to a party at a house of a friend who is began, so this one was perfect. Easy to follow and they came out just like your picture.
