Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 oz full-fat cream cheese, softened
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp almond extract
  • 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour blend with xanthan gum
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, softened (for frosting)
  • 1 ½ cups powdered sugar (for frosting)
  • ¼ tsp almond extract (for frosting)
  • 1 to 2 tbsp milk
  • 1 to 2 drops pink gel food coloring

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Cream butter, cream cheese, granulated sugar, and powdered sugar until fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Beat in egg, vanilla, and almond extract until smooth.
  3. Whisk flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt. Fold into wet mixture just until combined.
  4. Scoop ¼-cup mounds of dough onto lined baking sheets, 3 inches apart. Bake 10-12 minutes until edges are set. Cool completely.
  5. Beat frosting ingredients until fluffy and spreadable. Tint pink and frost cookies. Let set 5 minutes.

Notes

For the best texture, use a high-quality cup-for-cup gluten-free flour blend. The cookies will look underdone at 10 minutes, that is perfect. They firm up as they cool. If your frosting is too thick, add milk a few drops at a time.
