Gluten-free Boozy Chocolate Cherry Cordial Cookies

Chocolate and cherry - what a great combination...especially when you add booze into the mix! These delicious cookies have been in my family for many years. We make them every year for Christmas and they're always a hit. So, when my daughter and I decided to make these gluten-free we thought "Why not change them up a little bit?". Hellloooo, Southern Comfort! A little, red, sweet gem soaked in booze and maraschino cherry juice. Combine this with chocolate and you definitely have a winner on your hands. A fudgy, chocolate, boozy cordial cherry cookie.

Of course, if you don't want to soak the cherries in Southern Comfort you don't have to. You can keep them classic by using plain maraschino cherries and they'll still be insanely delicious. They'll be perfect for the kiddos to enjoy as well!

Gluten-free Triple Chocolate Crumb Cake

Are you ready for a treat? A chocolate treat to be exact. We are HUGE fans of crumb cake in my house. New Jersey style crumb cake as always been a favorite. It was something we always got while vacationing at Long Beach Island on the Jersey Shore. On one of those trips we visited a local bakery to scout out some goodies. We were looking for regular crumb cake, but this bakery had chocolate crumb cake which I had never seen before. Of course, we had to try some. It was delicious, but we were never lucky enough to have it again after I went gluten-free.

After I went gluten-free I decided to try and recreate that super delicious chocolate treat. It starts with a layer of chocolate cake with a tiny bit of coffee mixed into the batter to enhance the chocolate flavor. It's also made with peanut butter instead of butter or oil. You can't really taste the peanut butter, but it does keep the cake perfectly moist, rich, and gives it a fudge-like texture. Now, let's talk about the crumbs; If you like crumb topping then you will love chocolate crumb topping. Big chunks of buttery, sweet, chocolate crumbs with mini chocolate chips mixed in for an added punch of chocolate flavor. All of this goodness is topped with a milk chocolate drizzle. Triple chocolate crumb cake is definitely a dessert for all of you gluten-free chocolate lovers out there.
