First of all, welcome to Dumbledore’s Vegan Army. If you found this blog you were probably searching the dark corners of the internet looking for vegan treats to make for your Harry Potter marathon or premiere party. Maybe you were listening to a Harry Potter audio book and getting cravings for foods that we muggles can’t just conjure up with the flick of a wand. If you long for some of Mrs. Weasley’s cute little pies or some of Madam Rosemerta’s famous butterbeer, you’re about to find some awesome ideas and recipes to fullfill any vegan’s Harry Potter themed food needs. Enjoy!

I wanted to sneak some treats into the theater to see The Half-Blood Prince, and it didn’t seem like greatest idea to sneak a bottle of cream soda spiked with butterscotch schnapps, so I decided to make a more solid form of butterbeer. These cookies are sweet, buttery and butterscotchy, just like I imagine real butterbeer to be. They are a really sturdy little cookie that won’t crumble in your purse while you’re hiding them from the theater staff.
