I found this recipe.. perhaps you can modify (use GF flour and CF margarine

in place of the regular stuff) and see how that works? I've not tried it but

it looks easy enough..

Good luck!

Glutano makes plain cookies that are preetty good. They have a shortcake

ring and an apricot biscuit - both plain cookies, one has the apricot,

but nice, flavor and the other is like a butter cookie. I get them at

the health food store.

Ceclia's gluten free grocery has the shortcake rings I know -

www.glutenfreegrocery.com

Good luck to you and your little one on this diet - you mentioned you're

on day 6, my son is on the diet for one year and doing fantastic. Each

day you're with the diet it gets easier and easier figuring out the

foods. Stick with the list and read the posts and you'll learn alot.

Ask all the questions and someone can almost always help you.

I know Miss Robens (www.missroben.com) carries an already made cookie called

Sweet Bisquit which is basically a vanilla cookie. It is very good!

Hi,

Here is the recipe from Roben Ryberg's cookbook " The Gluten-Free Kitchen " .

She says these are a little higher and paler in color than store bought, but

taste better. I have not personally tried them since this is something my

son wouldn't eat!

Vanilla Wafers

1/4 c. shortening

3/4 c. sugar

1/4 c. oil

2 tsp. vanilla flavoring

2 eggs

3/4 c. potato starch

1 c. cornstarch

1/2 tsp. guar gum

1/2 tsp. xanthum gum

3/4/tsp. salt

1/4 c. water

Preheat oven to 350. Cream together shortening, sugar and oil. Add

remaining ingredients. Mix well to remove all lumps. Drop by small

teaspoonful onto greased baking sheet. Bake 10 minutes, until lightly

browned on edges. If your cookies don't seem crisp enough, bake a minute or

two longer.

Makes 7-8 dozen small cookies.
