What seems like ages ago, I made a recipe for Blood Orange Cream Cookies based on a recipe by chef/photographer extraordinaire Aran Goyoaga. It really was a lifetime ago! Just looking at the old blog post, I am brought back in time. I took the photos in the spare bedroom we used as an office in […]
Egg Nog Spiced Gluten-Free Slice and Bake Cookies
I’ve partnered with Pamela’s Products for this holiday cookie recipe. Friends, meet your new favorite holiday cookie – Egg Nog Spiced Gluten-Free Slice and Bake Cookies. It’s that time of year again when we fill our cupboards and fridges with baking essentials. For me that always includes several bags of Pamela’s All-Purpose Gluten-Free Artisan Flour […]
Gluten-Free Peppermint Bark Brownies Recipe
There’s a bit of story and history behind these Gluten-Free Peppermint Bark Brownies… I first made Peppermint Bark Brownies way back in 2006 in the early days of Cafe Johnsonia. Back then CJ was called Just Recipes. That was a very long time ago in blog years! The idea for the brownies came from my […]
Gluten-Free Pumpkin Dulce de Leche Cheesecake Bars
These Gluten-Free Pumpkin Dulce de Leche Cheesecake Bars are something extra special. I think of all of the recipes I’ve developed during my partnership with Pamela’s Products, this is my very favorite. And maybe it’s because Pamela’s Pumpkin Bread Mix is one of my family’s very, very favorites. Last year – no joke – when […]
Gluten-Free Gingersnaps with Lemon Cream Filling
These Gluten-Free Gingersnaps with Lemon Cream Filling are full of bright flavor. Tart lemon cream frosting is sandwiched between two gingery, chewy (or crisp, if you prefer) cookies. This is the first time I’ve actually been excited for January. Usually I’m like, “Ugh. Can we just fast forward through January, February, and March and get to […]
Gluten-Free Cranberry Lime Cornmeal Cookies
Early on in my marriage, I subscribed to Everyday Food, which sadly doesn’t exist anymore. I LOVED that little magazine so much. It made new ingredients and recipes feel more approachable as I was honing my kitchen skills. There was one issue that I had for years and years until it finally fell apart. I saved […]
5 Amazing Gluten-Free Ice Cream Sandwiches
This post is sponsored by Pamela’s Products as part of an on-going partnership. I’m so happy to be a Baking Partner again in 2015! School started today, and both my husband and I are beside ourselves with joy. Ha! We had a great summer, but there’s always that little sigh of relief when we get […]
Flourless Chocolate Hazelnut Cookies
In our family, we have high expectations for gluten-free cookies. I’m the only gluten-free one, so a lot of the time, I make stuff for everyone else. But that gets kind of old. Making two separate dinners or desserts is a lot of work and frankly, a huge pain. My family has more or less agreed […]
Gluten-Free Pistachio Fig Pinwheel Cookies
Make these delicious pinwheel cookies for your next cookie swap or potluck. Have I got a good recipe for you today! Remember the Peach Curd Bars I made in the fall? Pamela’s Products asked if I would like to develop another recipe especially for the holidays using their Gluten-Free Sugar Cookie Mix. I’ve been wanting to try […]
The Easiest Chocolate No Bake Cookies
Chocolate no bake cookies are a classic favorite. Easy to put together, delicious, and full of rolled oats. I loved chocolate no bake cookies as a kid, but I haven’t made them for years. These no bake cookies are actually more like a cross between candy and cookies. When I first tasted them, they reminded me of […]
