Directions
1. In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, and spices. Set aside.
2. Using a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat plant-based butter until smooth, approximately 1 minute.
3. Add dark brown sugar and molasses, then beat on medium-high speed until just combined.
4. Mix in vanilla and plant-based milk.
5. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful to not over-mix!
6. Shape dough into a disc and wrap tightly with plastic wrap. Let chill in the fridge for at least three hours to overnight.
7. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
8. Roll out chilled dough on a lightly floured surface to about ¼" in thickness.
9. Cut out dough using a well-floured cookie cutter, then freeze gingerbread cookie cutouts for at least 15 minutes.
10. Brush excess flour off cookies, then place on the prepared baking sheet and bake for about 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden.
11. Allow cookies to cool completely on the baking sheet. Sprinkle with powdered sugar, if desired.
12. For the frosting, in a medium bowl, cream together plant-based butter and powdered sugar until fully combined. Add in salt, plant-based milk, and continue mixing on low speed until smooth.
13. Transfer the frosting to a piping bag with a small piping tip. Set aside.
14. Cut MacroBars using the same well-floured cookie cutter.
15. Pipe frosting onto MacroBar cut-outs and gently press a gingerbread cookie on top.
