Friends and family will love the gluten-free lace cookies. They are so addictive too. The other name for these gluten-free cookies is tuilles, meaning lace cookies. Crispy thin lace cookies that can be served plain or filled with chocolate and vanilla.
These delicate gluten-free lace cookies are easy to make and can be shaped into cones, tubes or left as circles. They are the perfect gluten-free cookie to serve with afternoon tea. The difference between a lace cookie and a tuille is the shape. A lace cookie is flat and a tuille is a shape.
HOW TO MAKE THE COOKIES:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Line a couple cookie sheets with parchment paper or silpats.
- In a medium saucepan add the butter, sugar and corn syrup on medium heat.
- Stir frequently until the sugar dissolves and mixture comes to a full boil.
- Remove from heat.
- Add the flour and vanilla and whisk well. Batter will be thin.
- Use a mini ice cream scoop to drop batter onto the parchment paper. The batter really does spread out a lot.
- Start with 4 cookies on the cookie sheet.
- Bake for 7-8 minutes or until golden in color.
- Remove from oven and let cool if letting cookies stay in round shape.
- If wanting to make them into a cornucopia shape let cookies sit no more than 30 seconds. Shape them around a wooden spoon and place on baking rack to sit.
The recipe is actually very easy to follow and the gluten-free lace cookies are easier to make than you would imagine. The only tricky part is the timing involved in shaping the warm cookies after they come out of the oven. You only have less than a minutes to shape them or they are too brittle to bend.
