Notes
- Note: Nutrition information is a rough estimate only; actual values will vary based on the exact ingredients used and amount of recipe prepared.
- Frosting: This makes a big batch of frosting, and you'll likely only use half to decorate the cookie. We based our nutrition calculations on half a batch of frosting.
- Gluten Free Instructions:
- To start, simply swap out the regular all-purpose flour for gluten free flour. I recommend choosing an all-purpose gluten free flour for the task. You may also want to check the packaging on the rest ingredients you're using to make sure they are processed in a gluten-free facility, if cross-contamination is of concern.
