King Arthur Gluten Free Cookie Mix 16 oz

Add Your Personal Touch: Made of the best ingredients, our quick and easy mix is a perfect base for your favorite add-ins like chocolate chips, dried fruit, and nuts. Makes 24 cookies. You'll Need: 1/2 cup (8 tablespoons) butter, softened or shortening*. 1 large egg. 2 tablespoons water. 1-3 cups add-ins (see below), optional. Baker's Tip: For soft and chewy cookie bars, mix in additional 2 tablespoons butter, additional 2 tablespoons water, and 3 cups add-ins, along with the butter (melted), egg, water, and cookie mix. Press into greased 9" x 13" pan and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until top is lightly browned. * To make non-dairy, use vegetable shortening, vegan buttery sticks, or margarine. Directions: 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place half of mix in bowl and beat in butter. Add egg and water and beat until fluffy. Beat in remaining mix, scraping bottom and sides of bowl. If desired, stir in up to 3 cups chocolate chips, nuts, or dried fruit. 2. Scoop dough by the heaping tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving 2" between cookies. Gently flatten cookies to 1/2" thick. 3. Bake cookies until just browned, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool on pan for 5 minutes before transferring to rack to cool completely.
