<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Hi Holiday bakers: I have been experimenting with baking cookies, and have hit on an easy and perfect substitute for regular flour. For any cooky recipe, substitute 1+1/2 c. rice flour + 1/2 c. sweet rice flour (for 2 c. wheat flour). So far I have successfully baked drop, rolled, and bar cookies. I don't need to use xanthum gum or any other binder, since the sweet rice flour does the trick. Hope that you have the same good results that I have. Ellen, Oregon
