Rolling + Baking
Preheat to 350F
Remove about 1/4 of the dough from the fridge and roll it out on a surface lightly dusted with sweet rice flour.
Cut shapes. Bake for 8-12 minutes – turn the sheets at the halfway mark for even cooking.
Let cookies rest on sheet for at least 5 minutes before removing to a cooling rack.
