Try using a blend of gluten-free flours like almond and coconut flour, and add xanthan gum for better texture!

Aside from gluten-free flour blend and xanthan gum, use granulated sugar for the sweeteners. But, you can also experiment with alternatives like brown sugar for a deeper flavor.

That sounds like a fun (and delicious) mission! One trick is to use a mix of gluten-free flours—almond flour adds a nice texture, while a little tapioca or cornstarch can help with softness. Also, chilling the dough before baking can keep the cookies from spreading too much. Can’t wait to hear how they turn out—good luck!

Stick with a good-quality gluten-free flour mix (xanthan gum will likely already be included!), rest the dough for at least 30 mins before rolling, and don’t overmix the dough! Roll the dough evenly and bake just until the tips are slightly golden, then allow them to cool on the baking tray for a minute before transferring to a wire rack to cool fully before adding your decorations or simply enjoying.
