You know those simple, bland looking cookies that you don’t think much of, but when you start eating them you can’t stop? These are those kinds of cookies! They are sweet, buttery and naturally gluten-free, since they are made with cornstarch. If the classic version is a bit bland for you, here are some suggestions: 1/2 teaspoon lime, lemon or orange zest for a citrus flavor bomb 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon gives you an almost snickerdoodle flavor 2 tablespoons shredded coconut for a tropical twist 1 teaspoon vanilla or almond extract (you might need more cornstarch to reach the dough consistency)
