Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cup margarine
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon almond extract
- 2 1/4 cup Glutagon gluten-free all-purpose flour,
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 190 °C
-
In a large bowl cream the Margarine and sugar together with a mixer.
-
Beat in egg and the almond extract.
-
In a medium bowl add the gluten-free flour, salt and baking powder and stir to blend ingredients.
-
Slowly pour flour mixture into the batter and mix until fully combined. The cookie dough will be like soft playdough.
-
Fill your cookie press with the dough. I used a snowflake disk for my cookies, but you can use any shape.
-
Form cookies on an ungreased cookie sheet. * If you are having difficulty with your cookie press, the cookie dough may not be moist enough. All gluten-free flours are different and you may need to add an additional 1/4 cup of marg to the dough. Just add the marg into the dough and remix and try again with the cookie press.
-
Decorate with gluten-free sprinkles. (optional)
-
Bake for 8-10 minutes. Please watch your oven because all ovens are different. Enjoy!

Store in an air-tight container.
