Ingredients

  • 2 cups gluten free flour
  • 1 teaspoon of baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons of corn starch
  • 1/2 cup of white sugar
  • 1/2 cup of brown sugar
  • 1 cup salted butter
  • 1 tablespoon of vanilla
  • 4 tablespoons of white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon of cinnamon

Instructions

  • First, gather all of your ingredients. The butter should be at room temperature, and the oven should be set to 350 degrees.
  • Then, sift the flour, baking soda and the corn starch together and set aside.
  • Next, cream the butter, vanilla and the two sugars together (not the 4 tablespoons of sugar for the dusting, hold that off to the side for now) – I usually do this for at least 5-7 minutes.
  • Add in the eggs one at a time. Then, add in the dry ingredients 1/2 a cup at a time and mix as little as possible.
  • Roll the dough into 1-inch balls, then roll in the mixture of 4 tablespoons of sugar with 1 tablespoon of cinnamon, ensuring the cookies are well dusted with the snicker mix!
  • Finally, finish by placing the round cookies onto a silicone lined baking sheet.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 12-14 minutes. Then, let them cool for a few moments and eat up.
