Candy Cane Cookies

This recipe is one I copied from my mother-in-law's stash many years ago. I like it because the girls can enjoy their "candy canes", without the sugar shock of traditional candy canes.1 cup palm shortening or shortening/ghee blend 1 cup powdered sugar 1 egg 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract 1/2 tsp. peppermint extract 2 1/2 cups GF flour blend (I used this one)1/2 tsp. xanthan gumred food coloringgreen
