**3D Christmas Tree Cookies**

**Ingredients:**
– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 3/4 cup vegan butter, softened
– 1/2 cup granulated sugar
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– Green food coloring
– Assorted vegan icing colors
– Sprinkles or small candies for decorating

**Instructions:**

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

2. In a large bowl, cream together the vegan butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the vanilla extract and mix until well combined.

3. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms. Divide the dough in half. Add green food coloring to one half of the dough and mix until the color is evenly distributed.

4. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

5. Roll out the green dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/4-inch thickness. Use a Christmas tree cookie cutter to cut out tree shapes. Place the cut-out cookies onto the prepared baking sheet.

6. Cut out smaller Christmas tree shapes in the center of half of the cookies to create the 3D effect. You can use a smaller tree cutter or a knife to do this.

7. Bake the cookies for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

8. Once the cookies are completely cooled, it’s time to assemble the 3D effect. Take the solid tree cookies and use assorted vegan icing colors to create a decorated surface. Let the icing set for a few minutes.

9. Place a decorated solid tree cookie on a flat surface. Add a small amount of icing on top, then gently place a cut-out tree cookie on top. Press lightly to secure them together.

10. Decorate the 3D Christmas tree cookies with sprinkles or small candies to make them even more festive.
