Gluten Free Star Cookies

Elana's Pantry's Note:

We've been going wild with the Star Cookies lately, pulling out all of our cookie cutters and making them in every possible shape, then frosting them with my Creamy Cream Cheese Frosting. The boys (and I) are having a blast. http://www.elanaspantry.com/star-cookies-for-santa-lucia/ This recipe is also a part of my recent Gluten-Free Christmas Recipe Round-up post! http://www.elanaspantry.com/christmas-recipe-roundup/
