Sitting on the back porch eating ice cream sandwiches, licking the dripping ice cream from between cookie layers as it melts in the warm June air. Counting fireflies, listening to the crickets call, enjoying simple good things. This is what summer memories are made of! Carrot Cake Cookie Ice Cream Sandwiches. Oh how I crave all the flavors of carrot …
Gluten Free Desserts
Gluten Free Strawberry Shortcake
This is a super easy, gluten free and grain free dessert you’ll make time and time again. If you’re dairy free, use the coconut oil instead of the butter and see Kate’s Tips for a dairy free alternative to whipped cream. Feel free to use any kind of fruit you like, as long as it’s …
Gluten Free Gingersnaps-Crisp and Spicy
Gluten Free Gingersnaps. The smell is what gets me every time. The sweet fragrance of ginger and cinnamon, sugar and molasses all blending into crisp perfection in a hot oven. Of all the Christmas cookie recipes I make, the one shouting CHRISTMAS the loudest has to be Gingersnaps. I like them snappy crisp, full of pungent spice and a little bit of heat as you savor the buttery flavor. I’ve discovered a way to make them gluten free which brings great joy to my husband’s and my seriously gluten intolerant guts.

Gluten Free Blondies
Some recipes change your world. This is one of them because these Gluten Free Blondies are the epitome of pure perfection in a bar–chewy/crisp, not overly sweet, crunchy with nuts and toasted coconut, and speckled with warm, melty chocolate.

Gluten-Free Strawberry Shortcake Cupcakes
These Gluten-Free Strawberry Shortcake Cupcakes are just the perfect marriage of fresh strawberries, homemade whipped cream and delicious, lightly coconut flavored gluten free cake. You don’t even notice that they’re gluten free but they are and they. are. addicting! I use organic coconut flour, raw honey, coconut oil and organic flaked coconut. These are so simple and, when you cut one in half, the strawberry in the center makes it look just like a little adorable strawberry shortcake! You can also make this into a lovely layer cake with sliced strawberries between the layers and decorating the whipped cream on the top. It’s a wonderful cake for a baby or wedding shower
