Ingredients
  

For the dough:

  • 2 ½ cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour blend
  • 1 tsp Baking powder
  • ½ tsp Baking soda
  • ½ tsp Salt
  • 1 cup Unsalted butter softened
  • 1 ¼ cups Granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup Powdered sugar
  • 1 large Egg
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp Almond extract

For the frosting:

  • ½ cup Unsalted butter softened
  • 2 cups Powdered sugar
  • 2-3 tbsp Heavy cream or milk
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract
  • Food coloring optional
  • Sprinkles optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and powdered sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Beat in the egg, vanilla extract, and almond extract until well combined.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  • Scoop out about 2 tablespoons of dough and roll into a ball. Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Lightly press down on each ball to slightly flatten.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the cookies are lightly golden. They will look slightly underbaked in the center, which is okay. Let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • In a medium bowl, beat the softened butter until creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, 1/2 cup at a time, beating until combined. Add the heavy cream (or milk) and vanilla extract, and continue to beat until the frosting is smooth and fluffy. If desired, add a few drops of food coloring and mix until evenly colored.
  • Once the cookies are completely cooled, spread a generous amount of frosting on top of each cookie. Add sprinkles, if desired.
