Equipment

  • electric mixer
  • fine-mesh sieve

Ingredients

For the Cookies

  • 2 cups Gluten Free All-Purpose Flour Blend
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 2 tbsp Instant Espresso Powder
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter, softened
  • 4 oz Mascarpone Cheese, at room temperature
  • 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 Large Egg
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract

For the Topping

  • 1 1/2 cups Powdered Sugar
  • 4 oz Mascarpone Cheese, at room temperature
  • 1 tbsp Whole Milk
  • 1 tbsp Unsweetened Cocoa Powder, for dusting

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together gluten free all-purpose flour blend, baking powder, salt, and instant espresso powder. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, beat softened butter, 4 oz mascarpone cheese, and granulated sugar with an electric mixer until light and creamy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Add the flour mixture and mix on low speed until a soft dough forms. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour until the dough is firm enough to scoop.
  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough, roll into balls, and place 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake for 11 to 13 minutes until the edges are set but the centers are still soft. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • For the topping, beat 4 oz mascarpone cheese, powdered sugar, and milk together until smooth and thick, like a spreadable frosting. Spread or pipe a generous dollop onto each cooled cookie.
  • Dust the tops generously with cocoa powder through a fine mesh sieve right before serving. The cocoa powder dusting gives the signature tiramisu look.
