Ingredients:
Dough:
- 1 cup of potato starch
- 2 cups of corn starch

- 2 tsp. baking powder
- ½ tsp. salt
- 1 T. sweet rice flour
- 1 tsp. guar gum
- ½ tsp. xanthan gum
- 2/3 cup of sugar
- 2/3 cup of butter
- 2 eggs
- ¼ cup of sour cream
- 1 tsp. vanilla
Frosting:
- ¼ cup of cream cheese
- 2 T. soft butter
- 2 cups of powdered sugar
- 1 tsp. vanilla or almond flavoring (I prefer almond)
- 1 T. Grand Marnier or Orange Blossom Water
- Coloring to taste
Directions:
In a medium sized bowl, combine dry ingredients. In large bowl, cream butter, egg, sour cream and vanilla. Stir in dry ingredients roughly 1/3 at a time until completely incorporated. Wrap dough in wax paper and chill for at least 2 hours. Sprinkle sweet rice flour on a work surface. Roll dough out, approximately ¼ inch thick. Cut cookies out. (Intricate shapes do not work very well.) Spray pan with non-stick spray. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes. Cool on rack. Frost.
