Gluten Free Butter Cookies with Chocolate Coating and Caramel Filling

Gluten Free Sandwich Butter Cookies

While making these gluten free butter cookies, I accidentally browned them a bit too much. I had to think of how to hide my error, and this was my solution. They turned out so delicious, I couldn’t wait to make more. They’re similar to my Gluten Free Girl Scout Samoa Cookies, but they’re sandwich cookies instead, which balances out the sweetness. I also enjoyed the caramel filling more in this recipe. Continue reading “Gluten Free Butter Cookies with Chocolate Coating and Caramel Filling”

Gluten Free Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

Gluten Free Peanut Butter and Chocolate Chip Cookies

I was going to make some gluten free nutter butter cookies when my husband suggested adding chocolate chips. Instead, I created a new cookie recipe specifically for gluten free peanut butter chocolate chip cookies. You’ll enjoy these cookies as they have a slight crunch on the bottom yet they’re soft.

I’ve loaded them with chocolate chips, but feel free to reduce the amount as desired. I will include these cookies when I make my Christmas cookie gift tins, even for the gluten eaters! This recipe makes a large batch, but you can cut in half easily enough. Continue reading “Gluten Free Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies”

This recipe for gluten free St. Patrick’s Day cookies is incredible! They’re in between a shortbread and sugar cookie. Shortbread cookies contain more butter than sugar cookies which makes them a bit softer and richer. Everyone loves these cookies. Adding a little green or Irish theme makes them that more special.

If you’re dairy-free, be sure to see my suggestions on how to make gluten free cookies to your liking using Earth Balance in the Cut-Out Cookie recipe.
