Ingredients

For the Cookies

  • 2 1/2 cups Gluten Free All-Purpose Flour Blend
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 3/4 cup Unsalted Butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 Large Egg
  • 2 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 3 tbsp Packed Brown Sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp Cinnamon

For the Glaze

  • 1 cup Powdered Sugar
  • 2 tbsp Whole Milk
  • 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together gluten free all-purpose flour blend, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, beat softened butter and granulated sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until combined. Add the flour mixture and mix on low speed until a smooth dough forms.
  • Roll the dough out between two sheets of parchment paper into a large rectangle, roughly 10x14 inches and about 1/4 inch thick. In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and cinnamon together, then sprinkle it evenly over the entire surface of the dough.
  • Starting from one long edge, tightly roll the dough into a log, using the parchment to help guide it. Wrap the log tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours until very firm.
  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Slice the chilled log into rounds about 1/3 inch thick. Place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake for 11 to 13 minutes until the edges are lightly golden but the centers still look soft. Let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
  • Whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until a smooth glaze forms. Drizzle generously over the slightly warm cookies. Let the glaze set for 10 minutes before serving.
