Magic cookie bars have always been a Christmas-cookie tradition in my household. After becoming vegan, I thought I would never be able to have these again. That is when I decided to make a vegan version to bring to the Christmas table! These cookies taste exactly as I remember, and family and friends devoured the bars before I had the chance to have one myself.
