INGREDIENTS:

1 1/2 cups unsàlted butter (3 sticks), softened
2 cups granulated sugar
4 eggs
1 1/2 têaspoons vanilla, almond, pêppêrmint, or coconut êxtract
5 cups all-purpôse flôur, plus môre fôr rôlling
2 teàspoon bàking powder
1 teàspoon sàlt

INSTRUCTIONS:

To make the cookies, in the bowl of a stand mixer or in a large bowl using a hand mixer, cream together the ghee or butter and honey until smooth, creamy, and light in color.
Add in the eggs and vanilla, and mix until well-combined. Set aside.
In a second bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, tapioca flour, baking soda, and sea salt until well-combined.
Add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients in two additions, mixing well after each addition. The dough will be very thick!
Using damp hands, remove the dough and divide into two parts. Form into flat discs, wrap each in plastic wrap, and then chill in the fridge for a hour or in the freezer for 15 minutes. The discs should be completely cold.
When chilling time is nearly up, preheat the oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with silicone baking mats or parchment paper. Set aside.
Place a large piece of parchment paper down flat on your counter, then remove one dough disc from the fridge, unwrap, and place in the middle of the parchment. Cover with another large piece of parchment.
