  • Total Time: 60 minutes
  • Yield: 24 biscuits 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, cold
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour blend
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Cream the cold unsalted butter with powdered sugar until light and smooth.
  2. Fold in the gluten-free flour blend and cornstarch gently to avoid overworking the dough.
  3. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for 30–60 minutes.
  4. Roll or press the dough out between two sheets of parchment paper.
  5. Cut into 2-inch rounds and place on a lined baking tray.
  6. Bake at 325°F (160°C) for 18–22 minutes until pale golden.
  7. Let cool on a rack before serving.

Notes

For a nutty flavor, replace 25% of the all-purpose flour with almond flour. For dairy-free, substitute with vegan butter.
