Behold, Irish Whiskey Cremes
I hope you can handle this oncoming sweet food porn extravaganza. I hope you like cookies.
It’s time to collect the photos and memories of the past two years’ worth of recipe testing for the latest Post Punk Kitchen authors classic: Vegan Cookies Invade Your Cookie Jar by Isa Chandra Moskowtiz and Terry Hope Romero.
Testing for this book happened along with testing for Vegan Brunch, and I’m currently testing for Isa’s current project, a weight loss cookbook! Go figure, after cupcakes and cookies.
I adored recipe testing once again for these ladies, and bombarding everyone I know with cookies during the process. Check out the cute tester photos in the back! Not mine, I totally missed the thread on this possibility, or you would have seen one of my cats sniffing a cookie…

These are near and dear to me and Evan.

I don’t think I can pick a favorite. Or favorites.
The Citrus Glitters, Irish Whiskey Cremes, Milanos and Cranberry White Chocolate Biscotti stick out in my mind – but then there’s the Black & White! I grew up with those cookies!
In short, if you like cookies of the vegan persuasion, you should get this book.

HELL. YES. Why, oh why, do I not have this book in my hands. WHY.
Oh my gosh. At the end of my work day, these are making me want to pass out from desire/craving. I need to get the book already!
Phenomenal photos. I just got the book and now I’m truly inspired to bake up some amazing treats to impress my new colleagues.
I now need a cookie! Especially the one with whiskey in it.
WOW!!
I want a cookie! Sexy, sexy, sweet cookie.
I can’t wait until my book comes…although I preordered and it looks like it will be late! The first thing I’m making is the Irish Whiskey Cremes. OH YES.
Now that’s what I call food porn…wow. I was going to hold off on this one (since I already own two vegan dessert cookbooks), but I think my holidays wont be complete unless I have the recipes for these cookies.
Oh my goodness my mouth is watering! I want to steal all these cookies! I really want to get this book. I think I might splurge, especially with the holidays coming. I might have to do some baking, I think! Ooh, I’m excited!
Congratulations on your new site! I added it to my RSS reader!
wow, that book is now at the top of my Christmas list. Terry and Isa amaze me. Love your new home!
Are those BUTTERSCOTCH chips I spy in your “chocolate chip” cookies next to the Mocha Mamas? Or is it possible that they are PEANUT BUTTER chips? Please do share what those orange morsels are and where you got them? YUM!
Jess where are you?!?!??!
Congrats on the new domain!
And holy mother of gawd, that is an amazing assortment of cookies! They all look really wonderful.
Those look freakin amazing! I am SO jealous you got to be a tester for this book. I have anxiously been waiting for my copy to arrive, I can’t wait!
Amazing, I love all your pictures! I can’t wait to bake those cookies myself – thanks for the inspiration
I have this, and I think the overwhelming number of delicious options has actually kept me from making anything yet. I know, crazy. Must get on that….perhaps I’ll make some to bring to my friend this weekend. She is having a baby today, she’ll need it.
Wow, you tested them all? How awesome. My copy is on its way, can’t wait to start baking.
i have to get used to this new layout!!
I love love love when you do these mega spreads. The new site is awesome, too!
Oh Jesus Jess…you’re killin’ me with all this cookie delicious-ness. I don’t have the book yet, but it’s so on my Xmas list! I need those sweet potato blondies…and the biscotti…and the glitters…oh my!
Holy crap, all I want for dinner now is cookies! The new site looks great, too
nom! everything looks delicious
These all look amazing. I just made the sweet potato blondies and they tasted great but the texture was super gooey and a bit oily. Did you have to beat the oil and sugar together really well for this recipe? Thanks!
DAMN! You rocked the cookie testing.
Um…. YES!
oh. mai. gawd.
oh man i’m like seriously drooling over this food porn
makes me wanna go home and bake….
My absolute favorite of all the ones listed are the (i know, i’m boring) the chocolate chip! They are the best classic cookie, and nothing compares to homemade… Yum yum.

those look delicious
My mouth is watering just looking at these friggin’ things! And I’m on a diet…how dare you
I was skeptical on getting this book. But after you’ve done all the testing, im like wow! i need this book! I’m grabbing it tomorrow!
I’m excited to try these for Thanksgiving! I’ve decided I’m going vegan to my family.. I usually just deal with their crap about Turkey Day, but this year, it’s only Seitan in my house! I can’t wait for their reactions!
