Gluten-Free Cardamom Shortbread


1. In large bowl, beat butter with sugar until light; beat in egg. In separate bowl, whisk together rice flour, cardamom and salt ; stir into butter mixture in 2 additions to make smooth dough. Cover and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.

2. Roll by 1 tbsp (15 mL) into balls. Place, 2 inches (5 cm) apart, on 2 parchment paper-lined rimless baking sheets. With fork, flatten to about 1/2-inch (1 cm) thickness. Sprinkle with pistachios.

3. Bake in top and bottom thirds of 325°F (160°C) oven for 17 to 20 minutes, rotating and switching pans halfway through, or until firm to the touch and edges are light golden. Let cool on pans for 2 minutes. Transfer to racks; let cool. (Make-ahead: Store layered between waxed paper in airtight container for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 weeks.).
