Gluten Free Snicker Doodles

Is there anything better than a chewy,moist, soft cookie rolled in cinnamon sugar? One day I just had a craving for snicker doodles, so away I went in the kitchen and I was SOO pleased with the results! I gave some cookies to the 16 and 17 year old I teach at church and they didn't even know the cookies were gluten free! That seriously is my biggest compliment when someone doesn't know that my food is gluten free! *Happy day!*



Ingredients:
2 sticks of gluten free butter (room temp)
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon gluten free vanilla
2 cups of brown rice flour
1/4 cup of sorghum flour
1/2 cup of potato starch
2 teaspoons of xanthum gum
1 tsp cream of tarter
1/4 teaspoon of salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
6 tablespoons sugar
2-3 teaspoons of cinnamon

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees and prepare cookie sheet with silicone liner
2. Cream together sugar and butter for 3-5 minutes. You want your mixture to be light and fluffy not just mixed up
3. Add eggs one at a time
4. Add gluten free vanilla
5. In a separate bowl add your flours, starch, xanthum gum, tarter, salt and soda. Whisk together to ensure that you don't get clumps of one type of flour. You want your mixture to be blended well!
6. Slowly add to the butter and egg mixture until combined. Take care to not over-mix or you will have tough cookies
7. In small bowl combine sugar and cinnamon. Add more or less cinnamon to your liking. (I like MORE)
7. Scoop out dough -about 1 to 2 teaspoons- (I use a small ice cream scoop that I use to scoop out cookie dough so that all my cookies come out the same size.) Roll into ball and drop into sugar bowl. Coat ball of dough well and place on a prepared cookie sheets, about an 1-2 inches apart.
8. Take a drinking glass and lightly press the bottom of the glass onto each ball of cookie dough, slightly flattening ball.
9. Bake 8-10 minutes
10. Cool on cookie sheet for 3-5 minutes and transfer to cooling rack
11. ENJOY and SHARE with friends! :)
