Instructions

1 In a medium-sized bowl, mix gluten free flour, baking soda, baking powder and
spices.
2 In a separate (large) bowl, beat butter, coconut sugar, molasses, dairy-free
milk and vanilla until combined with hand mixers or a stand mixer. Once
combined, slowly add in dry ingredients while continuing to mix. Mixture will be
dense and tough to mix by the end; make sure all is incorporated.
3 Form the dough into a ball and wrap in cling wrap. Place in the fridge for about
an hour.
4 Once the cookies are chilled, preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet
with parchment paper.
5 Lightly flour a surface OR use another piece of parchement paper to work on and
place the chilled dough on top (I prefer the parchment method).

Begin to roll it out the dough with a rolling pin. If it's sticky, knead a
little flour into it. Roll it to be about 1/4″ thick.
6 Cut out shapes and place on lined baking sheet. They will puff up a bit so leave
a little room in between each. Re-roll unused dough and repeat process.
7 Bake 6-7 minutes.
8 Remove from oven but do not remove from baking sheet. Let sit for ~10 minutes
and place baking sheet in the fridge to cool for 20 minutes before removing from
pan.
9 Place room temperature butter and powdered sugar in a bowl and beat with hand
mixers. Add vanilla. Taste and adust to your liking. If you want to thin the
frosting, add milk or dairy-free milk 1 tsp at a time.
