POTATO FLAKE COOKIES *GLUTEN FREE*



Potato Flake Cookies *gluten Free* image

I found this recipe on a cookie website and tried it using Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free All Purpose Baking Flour. They turned out great and tasted like normal cookies! It took me a few batches to get the browning right but I found that by cooking them slightly longer and having them be a little more browned they were easier to remove from the baking sheet and not have the cookies fall apart. I added the lemon extract to the batter because I had it on hand and it made for just a slight hint of lemon and they tasted great, but that can be optional. I also added some sprinkles for some color and my kids loved them. I also used a round pizza pan to bake the cookies in and they turned out better than a rectangular sheet.

Yield 3-4 Dozen

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup butter or 1 cup margarine

  • Drop the dough onto the baking sheet, about 1 tbsp of dough for each cookie, leaving some room because they do expand pretty well.

  • Be sure to measure your ingredients accurately. This will help to ensure that your cookies turn out perfectly.
  • If you don't have a stand mixer, you can use a hand mixer or a food processor to cream together the butter and sugar.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help to prevent the cookies from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the cookies at the correct temperature and for the correct amount of time. Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
