If you use a solid vegan butter or a full meal, you may need to add 1-2 tablespoons of non-dairy milk. The dough should have a texture similar to a shortbread.

Separate the cookie tops and cookie bottoms. Once all of the cookies are baked and cooled they can be filled. Repeat with any remaining scraps of dough. If you have kept the mini cookie shapes intact, they’ll be done after about 6 minutes, so keep an eye on them. With the mini stamped out shapes, you can either add them to your ball of scraps and re roll, or bake them as they are for chef’s perks!īake the cookies as above, for 10 minutes or so. I used a mini star shape and a mini fluted cutter, but you can use any shape you like. Repeat the instructions above, but this time, stamp out a small shape in the centre of each cookie as well. While the first batch of cookies are baking, I like to start rolling out the second batch (my small fridge only has a limited amount of space!). They’ll keep cooking on the hot tray, so gently slide the parchment paper with the cookies onto a cooling rack to cool fully. When firm, bake the cookies for 10 minutes, or until just turning golden at the edges. Repeat this process with the second portion of dough. This helps stop the cookies from spreading. Place the baking paper with the stamped out cookies on one of the baking trays and chill until firm (about 10 minutes). Using a 6cm cookie cutter, stamp out as many biscuits as the dough allows, lifting up the scraps around the cookies, if you can and keeping to one side for later. Because of the high quantity of butter the dough does get soft quickly, so work as fast as you can. Roll out the dough between two pieces of baking paper until about 3mm thick. Get a couple of baking sheets at the ready. The next morning, or up to 48 hours later, remove your first batch of dough from the fridge and preheat your oven to 160C fan.

The dough will feel really soft at this stage but by putting it in the fridge overnight, the gluten free flour has a chance to hydrate and suck up some of that moisture, making it easier to roll. Divide into four pieces and wrap each in cling film, pressing them down to form a disc. Add the dry ingredients in a few stages and mix in until the mixture forms a soft dough. Whisk together the whole egg and egg yolk and beat them gradually into the butter and sugar mix. In a separate bowl, beat together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. To make the cookie dough, sift the flour, xanthan gum and salt together in a large bowl.
