Gluten Free Linzer Cookies Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1/3 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 4 oz Philadelphia cream cheese (softened)
- 2 cups Beth’s All Purpose Flour (From Gluten Free Pantry)
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 tsp baking powder (aluminum free)
- 1/2 tsp grated lemon peel (I used Penzey’s)
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- Raspberry Fruit Spread
Directions:
- In a heavy mixer beat butter and cream cheese together until fluffy.
- Whisk together flour mix, sugar, baking powder, and lemon peel. Beat 1 cup of flour mixture into the butter mixture.
- Add egg, vanilla and lemon juice. Beat in remaining 1 cup of flour mixture.
- Cover and chill for 2 hours or overnight.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Divide dough in half. On a well floured (rice flour) surface, roll out half the dough to a 1/4 inch thick or less.
- Using a 2″ cutter cut dough into circles. Cut as many as the dough will allow and bake for 10 mins or until the sides are lightly brown.
- Place the center cutter in the circle and roll out the remaining dough and cut “lids” for your cookies and bake them as you did with the bottoms.
- When cool, spread on the fruit spread and place a top on them. Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
