WORKING WITH YOUR GF SHORTBREAD DOUGH

Because there isn’t a lot of moisture in this gluten free shortbread cookies.

recipe, it will seem like your dough isn’t coming together, but I promise: it.

will! Just keep mixing until it forms a soft dough, but don’t over-mix;.

otherwise, your finished product may come out super delicate and crumbly.

When it’s ready, roll out your dough until it’s about ⅜-inch thick. You can do.

this over a piece of parchment paper that’s been lightly dusted with gf flour.

When you reach the right thickness, cut the dough using a knife or pizza cutter.

for square or rectangular cookies, or cookie cutters for other shapes.

If you use cookie cutters, you may end up with a lot of scraps. Don’t you dare.

throw them away! Because there’s no gluten that can toughen up with continued.

handling, you can re-roll your dough over and over again until you’ve used it.

HOW TO MAKE GLUTEN FREE MOCHA SHORTBREAD COOKIES

Mocha cookies are made with the addition of some cocoa powder and instant.

espresso powder to the basic shortbread dough. The real magic happens when you.

dip each slice of cookie dough in a coating of cocoa powder and granulated.

HOW TO MAKE GLUTEN FREE BERRY CHIP SHORTBREAD COOKIES.

For the berry chocolate chip cookies, just add dried berries and mini chocolate.

chips to the dry mix. I like dried cranberries and miniature chocolate chips,.

but you could add all mini chips and make them chocolate chip.

You could also try chopped nuts (walnuts, pecans, or pistachios are all great.

soft nuts) in place of dried berries. The chocolate drizzle adds a bit of extra.

chocolate flavor and lots of charm, but isn’t strictly necessary.

HOW TO MAKE GLUTEN FREE TOFFEE CARAMEL SHORTBREAD COOKIES.

Toffee caramel cookies are bits mixed into the basic dough, then dipped in chocolate and drizzled with.

HOW TO MAKE GLUTEN FREE GLAZED LEMON SHORTBREAD COOKIES.

Glazed lemon gluten free shortbread is made fresh and lemony with lemon juice.

lemon zest, then topped with a simple lemon glaze. I used to add a bit of “True.

Lemon,” which is a granulated lemon “seasoning blend.” I’ve swapped that out for.

lemon juice, instead.

Not everyone has or can find True Lemon, but if you do have it, try adding about.

a teaspoonful to the recipe as written for a ton of lemon flavor. There are.

other True flavors, and they’re all worth trying!
