Notes
The dough will seem too crumbly at first, which I find common when baking gluten-free. So don't worry like I normally do! It will all work out, just stick with it!
Form the dough into a ball & then on a floured surface & with flour on your rolling pin roll out the dough. The dough is delicate so I found it best to transfer the raw cookie dough shapes from surface to baking sheet with a spatula.
This recipe creates 24 light, crispy, sugar cookies!
