Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 240 grams Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 200 grams Unsalted butter, softened
- 100 grams Powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 40 grams Cornstarch
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and powdered sugar together using a hand mixer or stand mixer until smooth and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the vanilla extract and mix until combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, cornstarch, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing just until the dough comes together. Do not overmix.
Scoop the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Gently press each cookie ball down using the back of a fork or your fingers to create a slightly flattened shape.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just lightly golden. The cookies should remain pale overall.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week. Enjoy your incredible gluten-free butter cookies!
