Cookie Dough
Directions
- Bring butter to room temperature. Preheat oven to 350F.
- Put rice flour and almond powder in a bowl and mix them all together.
- In a separate bowl, mix the butter with a whisk. Once it is smooth, add the maple syrup and mix. Add the rice flour and almond powder and grind to an even mixture.
- Place the mixture in a plastic bag, roll out to 5mm thickness with a rolling pin. Place it on a tray, and put it in the fridge for 10 minutes.
- Cut open the side of the plastic bag. Cut out the dough with a mold, and place it on a baking sheet lined with a baking pan.
- Bake for 10 minutes, then lower the temperature to 325F for 5 minutes. When baked, place it on a net or something similar to cool.
