Gluten Free Sugar Cookies (by En)

Tell me what is more comforting than a tall cold glass of bovine or nut milk of your choice and a cookie. I'll wait. Maybe two cookies? Fair point. Today I made some cookies for a gluten free friend of mine who doesn't bake much anymore because of how finicky this style of baking is. Sugar cookies are a win. Sugar cookies dipped in a dark chocolate glaze are a triumph. Soft and chewy with the satisfying crunch that outer shell of sugar gives, I definitely have not been giving these the real estate they deserve in my kitchen. I won't be making that mistake again, according to my friend.

The dichotomy of the dish lies in its simple ingredients (pasta, cheese, bacon and black pepper, if you're a rebel) plus the crucial combination of timing and chemistry to avoid an unappealing egg scramble and divine a sauce so silky and smooth you could cry. After much research, my first attempt was a success. I have since repeated it 3 times just to be sure it wasn't a fluke. Because, you know... science.                                                         Before    ...
