Vegan Christmas Gingerbread Cookies

"Here’s a delicious and easy-to-make gingerbread cookie recipe that’s also vegan and gluten-free. Since this recipe requires dates, I didn’t add any additional sweetener, but if you want your cookies sweeter, you can add some. I also added some chopped candied ginger, but if you don’t have any, that’s okay. The coconut oil is optional too. I also decided to decorate my cookies with glaze that’s made of melted coconut oil and powdered sugar. You can use a little bit of non-dairy milk or water instead of the coconut oil, or just leave them plain."
