Servings: 3

 

Ingredients:

1 cup butter, softened

cherries, coloured sugar or sprinkles for decorating

1/2 cup confectioners' (icing) sugar

1/2 cup cornstarch

1 cup white rice flour

1/4 cup tapioca starch/flour

1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, but good)

1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum

Equipment:

baking paper

bowl

whisk

wire rack

Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Line your baking sheets with parchment paper.Place the butter and confectioners’ sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Starting on slow speed, and slowly increasing, beat the butter & sugar until fully combined, scraping down the bowl in between. Add the extracts if using, and beat until blended.In a separate bowl, whisk together the remaining ingredients. Slowly add to the butter mixture while the mixer is on low speed. Once the flour has been worked in, slowly increase the speed to medium. Beat on medium speed for 5-6 minutes. This is crucial, as it adds the lightness to the dough, giving you a light, airy cookie.Scoop 3/4-inch balls of dough onto the cookie sheet, keeping 2-inches between cookies. I use my small cookie scoop for this, works perfectly.Use a fork, that has been floured with rice flour, to press the cookies down slightly. Place cherries, sprinkles, or coloured sugar on the top of the cookies, if using.Bake in preheated oven for 23-25 minutes. You do not want the cookies to brown at all, just for the dough to set. Let cookies remain on cookie sheet for 2-3 minutes before removing to wire cooling rack.Store cooled cookies in an airtight container.

Food Joke

An old man and a young man worked in office next to each other. The young man had noticed that the older man always seemed to have a jar of peanuts on his desk. The young man loved peanuts. One day while the older man was away from his desk the young man couldn't resist and went to the old man's jar and ate over half the peanuts. When the old man returned the young man felt guilty and confessed to taking the peanuts. The old man responded "That's ok since I lost my teeth all I can do is lick the chocolate off the M&Ms."
