Description

Delightful gluten-free cookies that are buttery, nutty, and coated in powdered sugar, perfect for any celebration.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups gluten-free flour blend
  • 1 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Additional powdered sugar for coating

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Cream together the softened butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Mix in the vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually add the gluten-free flour blend and salt, mixing until well combined.
  5. Stir in the chopped nuts.
  6. Roll the mixture into small balls (about 1 inch in diameter) and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the bottoms are lightly golden.
  8. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool slightly.
  9. Roll the cookies in powdered sugar to coat while still warm. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack before serving.

Notes

For best results, ensure butter is softened and use finely chopped nuts. Rolling cookies in powdered sugar while warm helps adhere better.
