SERVINGS
Makes 20 cookies

INGREDIENTS
1/4 cup shortening
4 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 egg yolk
1 1/4 cups brown rice flour, plus extra for dusting
1 tablespoon ground almonds
2 ounces gluten-free white chocolate, grated

PREPARATION
1. Place the shortening, butter, and sugar in a large bowl and beat together, then beat in the egg yolk followed by the remaining ingredients. Form the dough into a ball, wrap closely, and chill for 1 hour.

2. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Remove the dough from the refrigerator, unwrap, and place on surface dusted lightly with rice flour. Knead the dough a little to soften it, then divide into 20 balls.

3. Place the balls on two baking sheets, flatten them slightly with a fork, and place in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, until golden. Remove the cookies from the oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool.
