I always thought that gluten free meant funny tasting but these cookies have proved me wrong. My best friend's Mum can't take gluten so these cookies are one of the few sweet things she can eat. I had one at her house and thought that they were one of the nicest cookies I had ever had.
You'd never know these light, delicious and amazing cookies were gluten free!

Cream the butter and the sugar in a bowl until light and fluffy
Add in the beaten eggs, one at a time and combine well
Add in sieved flour and baking powder and bread soda
Add finely chopped ginger
Chill for 20-30 minutes
Pre-heat oven to 180C mark 5
Lightly flour two baking trays with gluten free flour
Shape mix into pin ball size pieces (do not place too near to each other or they will stick!)
Place in the oven and bake for about 15 minutes - though check often to make sure they don't overcook
When cooked remove from over and place cookies on wire rack to cool before placing in air tight container
Enjoy 🙂
These are super easy and any kid (aged 9 and over) could do these pretty much on their own, even my younger brother or sister could! Obviously you need a grown up to help with the oven stuff.
