I love making holiday cookies and decorating them with my family. This recipe was my mother's cookies, but now with a gluten and dairy free twist. The secret is in the combination of nutmeg and almond flavoring in the icing. These are the BEST and ones that I love sharing.
The icing is also easy and delicious and compliments the cookies perfectly. Enjoy & Happy Holidays! xox Melissa

Searing the Beef
Sear beef fillets on high heat for 2 minutes per side to form a golden crust. Let it cool before proceeding to keep the beef tender.

Searing the Beef
Keep the puff pastry cold to avoid softness. Chill if it becomes too soft, and score the top lightly without cutting through.

Searing the Beef
Cook the mushrooms until all moisture evaporates to prevent soggy pastry. Aim for a thick, paste-like consistency.
