GLUTEN-FREE GINGERBREAD CUTOUT COOKIES
Gluten-free gingerbread men? Yes, please! This tender, from-scratch dough has all the usual spices you'd find in any traditional gingerbread-cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg and of course, ginger! As soon as you pop these cute-as-can-be cutouts in the oven, your home will be filled with aromas that are undeniably festive. Little bakers can help roll out the dough and can decorate their gingerbread girls and boys with white chocolate frosting and crushed cinnamon candies. And with just 15 minutes of prep, you can whip up a batch to bring to the cookie exchange or to a last-minute Christmas party-trust us, these cookies are so good you won't even know they're gluten free!

Steps:
- In large bowl, beat sugar, butter and molasses with electric mixer on medium speed until well mixed, or mix with spoon. Beat in egg until blended. In medium bowl, stir together flour blend, baking soda, xanthan gum, cinnamon, ginger, salt, cloves and nutmeg. Stir dry ingredients into sugar mixture. Cover and refrigerate about 1 hour or until firm.
- Heat oven to 375°F. On work surface sprinkled with flour blend, roll half of dough at a time 1/8 inch thick. (Keep remaining dough refrigerated until ready to roll.) Cut with 2 1/2-inch gingerbread boy or girl cookie cutter dipped into flour blend. Place 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheet.
- Bake 7 to 9 minutes or until set. Remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack; cool completely, about 15 minutes.
- In small microwavable bowl, microwave white vanilla baking chips and shortening uncovered on Medium-High (70%) 1 minute; stir. Microwave 15 seconds at a time until mixture can be stirred smooth. Place in decorating bag fitted with small round tip. Pipe on cookies as desired, and decorate with candies.
