Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ¾ cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- In another bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour and baking powder. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients until combined; the dough should be slightly sticky.
- Dust your countertop with gluten-free flour and roll out half of the dough to about 1/4 inch thick. Use cookie cutters to create shapes and place them on prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until edges are lightly golden. Let cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks.
