vanilla cookies with nutella

Vanilla crisp

1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup shortening
1 cup sugar
2 tsp vanilla
2 eggs
2 1/2 cups gluten free flour (use regular flour for non gluten free)
1 tsp zantham gum (leave out for non gluten free)

Creme together your butter, shortening and sugar, add your vanilla, and the eggs 1 at a time. Blend in your flour.

Drop by the spoonful on a non greased baking pan. Or roll into a log and cut, flatten with a dusted cup. Bake at 375 degrees for 8 minutes.

The frosting

2 cups of confectionery sugar
2 tbs of butter
2 tbs of milk
1 tsp of vanilla
2 tbs of nuttela (or whatever else you have like melted chocolate)

candy cookies

Now this is a winner of a cookie. Who doesn’t love snickers candy and peanut butter cups? We are going to take the candy and hide it in a cookie, so you chose which candy to use, me I do a double batch using both kinds.
1 cup peanut butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
mix it all together very well
1 tsp xanthan gum
2 cups brown rice flour
1/2 cup potato flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
combine wet and dry ingredients and mix well
It is easier if you chill the dough for like 20 min
Grab your bag of candy and warm up the oven to 375
theres two ways to do this cookie, use which ever is easier for you

now you can wrap the dough around your candy and then place it onto a greased cookie sheet or you can take a muffin pan and scoop the dough into the muffin pan bake your cookie for 9 min and as soon as it comes out of the oven push the candy in the center. We have done both ways and they are both yummy. Make sure you let the cookie cool before removing it from the cookie sheet or the muffin pan. Again these are gluten free so you want to freeze any that wont be eaten with in 2 days
