This Dairy Free Gingerbread Cookie Recipe creates a crispy, mild flavored cookie that is perfect for dunking in milk. I knew it would be the perfect cookie to pair with Silk Vanilla Almondmilk!
It is no secret that I Love My Silk! I enjoy Silk Coconutmilk and Almondmilk on a regular basis.
My little brother on the other hand had never tasted Silk Almondmilk. What!?! I decided that needed to change.
I knew it would be a hard sell because he is a dairy milk fan through and through. He could drink a gallon of whole milk every day if given the opportunity!
I also knew the lure of Crispy Gingerbread Cookies and an ice cold glass of Silk Vanilla Almondmilk would bring him around.

So I asked him to stop by after work and participate in my Silk Vanilla Almondmilk taste-test . . . while I filmed it. He is such a good sport!
And just to make the video a little more entertaining, I requested that he act like Jack Black while he tasted the cookies and Silk. Yes, I am still the Bossy older sibling. Hehe!
The verdict: He loved it and was pleasantly surprised by the delicious flavor of Silk Vanilla Almondmilk!
I also had my daughter participate because she is my official taste-tester! And she always drinks Silk Coconutmilk. It was time for her to try the almondmilk.
