Nutty- Butter Scotch Thumbrint Cookies - Vegan Cookies

Nice and nutty, and delicately sweet.

These thumbprint cookies are loaded with walnuts, and sweetened with dates and coconut sugar, which adds a rich caramel taste. To make these cookies extra scrumptious, I filled their centers with sticky caramel in one batch and butter scotch in an another.

These thumbprint cookies are easy-to-make, and a perfect treat for any occasion. They also pairs deliciously with a warm cuppa cocoa, tea or coffee.
