Instructions
Preparation Steps
In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thickness. Use cookie cutters to cut out shapes.
Place cookies on the prepared baking sheets and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
Let cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Decorate as desired.
