I Need A Rolled Sugar Cookie Recipe


Darn210

Recommended Posts

Darn210 Enthusiast

Before my daughter was diagnosed, decorating sugar cookies was my "thing". I did it a little on the side for friends/acquaintances. I have turned down several jobs because I won't have something in my house that my daughter would obviously want and she can't have. (Dad's frosted miniwheats are OK because he is the only one who EVER wanted to eat them.)

I am looking for a relatively simple rolled sugar cookie recipe that I can use to decorate cookies again. I am not looking for something particularly labor intensive. One that I have has rolling the dough on the pan, cutting out shapes, refridgerating all of it, removing excess, cooking, blah, blah blah . . . too much! Each sheet of cookies would take way too much time. The decorating process is labor intensive enough!!

So here is my list of demands: :lol:

Relatively the SAME labor as gluten sugar cookies (I am expecting multiple flours!)

Hold up well (does not crumble) during the decorating process

Decent taste (Let's face it, by the time I'm done decorating, the cookies can be overwhelmed with icing but a bad tasting cookie would shine through, I'm sure)

Hope someone can help . . . Thanks!

Your wish is my command :D

These are really good--I think they taste like "regular" sugar cookies, and the prep is the same....

SUGAR COOKIES

1 cup shortening (I use Spectrum)

1 cup sugar

2 eggs

1/2 teaspoon vanilla

3 cups rice flour blend (I simply use 2 cups of rice flour and one cup of potato starch--I'm intolerant to tapioca)

1 1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

Cream shortening and sugar, add eggs and vanilla. When combined, add dry ingredients. Wrap dough (I also flatten it a little) and chill for about an hour. Roll out and cut as desired.

Bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes. Cool, frost and decorate.

This dough makes a great "crust" for a fruit pizza or tart. It also doubles very well.

Have fun! ;)

Soft Gluten Free Sugar Cookies

INGREDIENTS

4 cups gluten free flour (I use this mix: 1 cup cornstarch, 1 cup tapioca flour, 1 cup rice flour, 1 TBSP potato flour)

3 teaspoons guar/xanthan gum

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1 cup butter, softened

1 1/2 cups white sugar

1 egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup sour cream

DIRECTIONS

Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and nutmeg; set aside. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in the egg, vanilla and sour cream until well blended. Stir in the sifted ingredients. Wrap dough in plastic wrap and chill overnight.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to 1/4 inch in thickness. Cut into desired shapes with cookie cutters. Place cookies 1 1/2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets.

Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

I got this recipe from allrecipes.com years ago, and it became "my" sugar cookie recipe. I modified it to take it gluten free. The cookies are incredibly soft, so much so that they even take a little longer to dry out than most gluten free cookies. ;) I hope it works well for you.

My recipe is very similar except its skipping the nutmeg and replace the sour cream with jello vanilla pudding powder which can make it soft too.

I tried this recipe over the weekend with the added pudding powder that Glutenfreefamily recommended. After refrigerating the dough, I tried rolling it out and it crumbled all to pieces! I had to put it back in the mixer with a little milk to get it back to cookie dough consistency. I didn't re-refrigerate it, I just rolled it out at that point. The cookies were absolutely fantastic!! In the future, I don't think I'll refrigerate the dough at all because I think it dries it out too much. I also wondered if the pudding powder makes the dough a little dry as well and it might have needed the extra milk anyway. I just thought I'd share my experience in case anybody else had similar problems. Thanks for the recipe!

Yes, I'll bet the pudding powder dried out the dough. I've made these several times in the last two years, and the dough has never been dry--it's actually easier to work with than the one I used to make with wheat flour.

When using this recipe, I'd suggest going with the recipe as is ;)

RikkiTikki....is that from landolakes? I used that one and it's great. I rolled it between wax paper. Just make sure to get it to 1/4" or less b/c if it's too thick it spreads tooo much.

YUMMY though! :D

I made chocolate chip cookies for my boys and peanut butter cookies for me. The boys asked for sugar cookies. I told each of them to find me a gluten free sugar cookie. One did and this is what it was. Didn't take time at all to make, bake, cool and frost. They taste great, plain or frosted.

1 cup rice flour

1/2 cup tapioca flour

1 cup cornstarch

1 teaspoon baking powder

2 1/2 teaspoons xanthan gum

1 teaspoon salt

1 cup sugar

1 cup Butter Flavor Crisco

1 egg or 1/4 cup liquid egg substitute

2 teaspoons vanilla

1/4 cup potato starch, for kneading

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.Have on hand 2 ungreased cookie sheets.

2. In a small bowl, whish together the flour mix, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt. Set aside.

3. In the bowl of your mixer, cream sugar and crisco. Beat in the egg and vanilla. Add the dry ingredients, mixing enough to combine. The dough will be a soft ball. With your hands, knead in enough of the potato starch to make the dough easy to handle and roll out.

4. Using about half at a time, place a piece of plastic wrap over the ball and roll out to about 1/8 inch thickness.

5. Cut into desired shapes and place on pan.

6. Decorate with coloured sugars before baking or use frosting to decorate after baking.

7. (With this dough, you can use all the scraps.) Just scrape them together and roll out again. They will not get tough.

8. Bake for about 13 minutes. Cool very slightly before removing from the pan.

Good luck

I just finished making Patti's Sugar Cookie recipe and they came out great! Thanks Patti.

The last few times I made sugar cookies, they spread. I guess I needed to use all shortening instead of half and half. The only modification I made was applesauce to replace the eggs. I also use a modified Carol Fenster flour blend with sorghum flour. I rolled the dough as soon as it was mixed between sheets of parchment paper and didn't have any problems.

I'll have to try some of these other recipes too.

This recipe was great--thanks for sharing. I substituted Earth Balance for the shortening. The dough was a bit sticky and hard to work with even after chilling so I put it in the freezer for a bit which helped. I think these could pass for "real" cookies.

Your wish is my command :D

THIS RECIPE CONTAINS DAIRY

Cream cheese cutouts

1 cup butter or margarine, softened

8-ounce package cream cheese

3 1/2 cups gluten free flour (I use gluten free pantry)

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 12 cups sugar

1 egg

1 teaspoon vanilla

1/2 teaspoon almond extract

Cream cheese frosting

4 ounces (1/2 package) cream cheese

1/2 stick (1/4 cup) butter or margarine

1 teaspoon almond extract

1/2 teaspoon vanilla

1 pound box confectioners sugar

2-4 tablespoons milk

food color optional

In a large mixing bowl, combine butter and cream cheese. Let stand at room temp. for 30 minutes.

Add sugar and beat until fluffy.

Add egg, vanilla and almond extracts.

Add flour mixture, baking powder, mix well.

Divide dough and chill (1 and 1/2 hour)

Preheat oven to 375 degrees

Roll dough 1/8 inch thick, cut out, place on ungreased cookie sheets.

Frosting: mix cream cheese and butter. Add almond and vanilla. Mix well. Add powdered sugar and milk.

This dough is really easy to work with. You can add cut scraps back into the dough without the dough getting too tough.

I just wanted to post that I made Patti's Easy Gluten Free Cookie recipe again on Valentines Day. I dyed the dough pink and cut them out with hearts. They came out spectacular! Everyone loved them, including gluten lovers.

My modifications are using a sorghum, potato starch, tapioca starch blend and using 1/4 cup of applesauce to sub for egg. I did not chill the dough either.

I will upload a photo soon!

Yay!! I'm glad that you enjoyed them, too. I'm getting ready to make some more tomorrow. I'm making reindeer faces. I'll have to post a picture later. After baking, I'll cut the cookies into pie-shaped wedges and frost with melted Enjoy Life chocolate chips. Then I'll put broken Glutino pretzels on either side of the round top for antlers; skittles for eyes and nose.

I made them last year and my daughter loved them. I think the original recipe called for m&ms, chocolate frosting, and red hots.

I'm also going to make cut-out cookies for the kids to frost when they are out of school.

This is another good sugar cookie recipe that we recently tried:

as one review said, roll them a little thick so that they're softer.

I used this recipe and it was fabulous!!! I use butter for my shortning and a mixture of Pamela's bakeing mix and brown rice flour. I also added about 1/4 cup of milk because the dough was very dry. I did not refridgerate the dough. I just rolled it out without any issues. These are the best sugar cookies I have ever made!!!! Including my pre=glutenfree lifestyle.

I like Land O' Lakes recipes.. I haven't gluten freed many of them, but I did one once for their vanilla pound cake, and it turned out AMAZING!

Just thought I'd put that out there.. :)

You know, I think it is. Over the summer I made a carrot cake and I think that's the one I used to frost it with...just stopped buying it b/c I thought I was reacting to soy. I'm gonna have to check when I'm at the store tomorrow! Thanks for reminding me!

      @Louise Broughton, Some types of interferon drugs can precipitate a Thiamine deficiency, by destroying thiamine and blocking its absorption.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms encompass all the symptoms you listed.  Gastrointestinal Beriberi caused by Thiamine deficiency has symptoms of vomiting, bloating, abdominal pain and diarrhea.  I've experienced this.  I took high dose Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine, and a B Complex. Thiamine can also be low on the Gluten free diet.  Talk to your doctor about supplementing with Benfotiamine and the B vitamins.   Interesting Reading: Gluten-free diet intervention reduces thiamine intake in two weeks, increases glycaemic response and decreases body weight in four weeks, with no long term nutritional deficiencies https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34583628/ Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Hi, @Blue Roan, I have Sjogren's Syndrome that made my salivary glands under my jaw swell.  I also have dry eyes from Sjogren's.  Yes, Sjogren's is yet another fun autoimmune disease that can occur in Celiac Disease.  It starts in the salivary glands. Vitamin D deficiency can also make salivary glands swell.  I was very deficient in Vitamin D also.  Vitamin D is instrumental in regulating the immune system and lowering inflammation. My dentist checked for stones blocking ducts in the salivary glands, too, but I didn't have any of those.  Yeah!  Try cutting out the antihistamines, because they make everything dry up.   Correcting my Vitamin D level to 80-100 nmol/ml has helped immensely.  I also supplement with Omega Threes (flax seed oil, oil of evening primrose) which has also helped my dry eyes and reduced my enlarged salivary glands.   Hope this gives you some direction to go next on your journey.  Wish it was better news.  Keep us posted on your progress!   P.S. Interesting Reading: Association Between Vitamin D and Minor Salivary Gland Inflammation https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9807185/ Outline of Salivary Gland Pathogenesis of Sjögren’s Syndrome and Current Therapeutic Approaches https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10342367/

      In my case I the rash and marks that present tend to be AFTER I have been scratching the skin, not before.  There are several varieties of eczema.  .   https://www.aad.org/public/diseases/eczema/types A few years ago, I was convinced my son had ringworm.  He had marks all over his torso, and given we live near livestock, I assumed he'd picked something up at the nearby farm.  Took him to the doctor who had seen a lot of different types of rash fully expecting him to agree, and he told me, "No, he's got discoid eczema".  He gave me a cream to put on my son, and it was gone within a few days and has never come back.  I think then it was to do with bubble bath we were using. Do you use that sort of thing? If so, do use hypoallergenic products, and make sure you rinse properly.  I remember one dermatitis saying only reserve 'heavy soaping' for under the arms.  Any large areas of skin which don't look dirty just need water.  This has been helpful.  A good emollient cream would be good too, for eczema sufferers, to be put on straight after your shower or bath.    Another tip that I have found helpful is 'treat any new outbreak'.   If I do that, I find it really stops it spreading.  I hope you get to see a dermatologist soon, but for the meantime do keep a food diary.  Try to identify all the foods that are causing your eczema and mouth symptoms.  I am sorry your doctors are being so dismissive of your symptoms as those sound very real to me.  I have a friend who has experienced the same and she couldn't get any doctors to believe her either.  In the end she paid for a private allergens test and it turned out yeast was a huge trigger for her.

      Are you scratching hard enough to leave bruising -- the dark marks?  But no rash?  And worse with exercise?  And no flaking?   I had vitamin deficiencies that caused neuropathy - itching, buzzing, tingling sensations, that I would scratch until I left bruising.   Many of the B vitamins, if deficient, can cause this itchy feeling without a visible rash on top of the skin.  Vitamins B12 Cobalamine, B6 Pyridoxine, Niacin B3, and Thiamine B are important to nerve transmission.  The B vitamins can be low in gluten free diets and deficiencies worsen over time.  I supplemented with a B Complex and extra Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and relieved the itchy feeling. Are you taking any supplements?  Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies recently?   The B vitamins are water soluble, so any excess is p'd out if it's not needed.  Try supplementing with B Complex and Benfotiamine to see if it helps.

      It’s interesting you mention eczema I had that as a child. Use to get it on my arms and hands . I wasn’t sure if this was the case again, because my skin isn’t flaky, I don’t have a rash like I did in childhood.  But similarity I notice certain foods really triggers the itch. Rice, is a major tigger when I eat rice I end up itching all night long. I can do oats too but it makes my mouth and tongue go numb after eating them. I try to avoid it.  🤔 on the blood work, I haven’t had any done in a while. It’s difficult speaking to doctors at times as they dismiss it as psychological. But I’ll keep pushing for an answer. Thanks to everyone who replied I really appreciate it.
