I replaced the butter with Miyoko’s and then added the optional zest and spices. They came out so light and buttery that no one could believe that they were grain and dairy free. Thanks for the great recipe!

    I made these to use in my Christmas cookie baskets (with some other AK favorites) and they were a hit. I replaced the butter with Miyoko’s and then added the optional zest and spices. They came out so light and buttery that no one could believe that they were grain and dairy free. Thanks for the great recipe!
