Floppy Disc Cookies Yields 16 cookies The things you’ll need Ingredients 2 cups 1-to-1 gluten free flour ½ cup dark cocoa powder ½ cup packed light brown sugar ¼ cup granulated sugar ¼ teaspoon salt 3 large eggs, room temperature ½ cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract Equipment Medium mixing bowl Small mixing bowl Whisk Spatula Rolling pin Baking sheet lined with parchment paper 3 ½-inch square cookie cutter Small knife White, grey, red, black, orange royal icing in decorating bags fitted with #2 tips Silver luster dust Small paint brush Let’s get started! Preheat oven to 350°F. In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten free flour, cocoa powder, sugars and salt. In a small bowl, whisk the eggs, butter, and vanilla. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture, add the wet ingredients and stir until well combined. Divide the dough into 2 discs and wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to overnight. Position the rack in the middle of the oven, and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. On a lightly gluten free floured or cocoa powdered surface, roll out the dough ¼ inch thick. Cut out cookies and using a small knife, cut a small piece of one corner of each cookie. Place them 1 inch apart on the baking sheet Bake until cookies are firm to the touch, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool for 2 minutes on baking sheets, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Time to decorate! Using the white icing, pipe and fill in a white rectangle onto each cookie for the floppy disk label. Using the grey icing, pipe and fill in a grey rectangle below the white for the floppy disk shutter. Allow icing to harden slightly, about 15 minutes. Using a small dry brush, dust each grey rectangle with silver luster dust. Use the red and black royal icing to make an 8-bit heart. Use the orange, white, and black to make a fox. TaDa!
