Gluten-free Peanut Butter Easter Eggs

For these Peanut Butter Easter Eggs, I decided that I would make it a mission for myself to make them as similar as I could to a Reese's Egg because they aren't gluten-free. I wanted to eliminate some of the sugar that is usually in traditional eggs because they are sometimes way too sweet. So, I added a tiny bit of salt and butter and cut the powdered sugar down by a ton. You can dip them in chocolate the traditional way, but I got a silicone egg mold from Amazon to make them look a little bit fancier!

Gluten-free Walnut Buttercream Thumbprints

These Gluten-Free Walnut Buttercream Thumbprints are the most requested cookie in our house all year long, not just Christmas time. The cookie base is not too sweet, so the addition of the walnuts that toast while they bake and the smooth vanilla buttercream balance everything out so nicely. Not only do these elements give these cookies an outstanding flavor, but a wonderful texture as well.

There really is nothing more Christmas-y than toasted nuts and sweet cookies. These cookies give you the best of both worlds all in one bite. I have no doubt that people will be asking you for the recipe once they try one of these beautiful creations; I know because it happens every year to me! The second best part about these cookies is that they’re extremely simple to make and only require a few ingredients that you have around the house. Simple and tasty - there’s nothing better.

Gluten-free Chocolate Hermits

These cookies are a Christmas staple in our house. We always have to make a double or even a triple batch just so we don’t run out by the time the holiday finally comes around! Now, these cookies may look super rich, but they’re surprisingly light and feel like a brownie in your mouth. The chocolate chips scattered in the dough give a light crunch to contract against the smooth icing on top. The chocolate sprinkles are optional, but they add another nice texture.

Some advice: I would definitely make a double batch like we do because these cookies disappear very quickly. First, you’ll try one, and sneak another, and then decide that since you’ve already had two, why not have a third? These Gluten-Free Chocolate Hermits are so addictive, you’ll never get enough of them!

Strawberry Dessert Topping

It's officially strawberry season!!!! Well, it's June 23rd as I'm writing this, so it might not be strawberry season anymore when you're reading it. 😂🍓 If you want a scrumptious, sweet, and homemade strawberry topping then you've come to the right place. There is nothing like a fruit topping made from fresh fruit of the season. Added bonus if you get to actually pick them yourself! Every summer my daughters and I go picking strawberries at our local berry farm and come home with tons of fruit. This year was no different; we came home with 2 huge buckets of strawberries...I believe it ended up being just about 10 pounds 😳.

This strawberry topping was on the top of my list to make. It's super quick and easy and soooo good. Nothing you buy from the grocery store can come close to the fresh taste of this topping. Just wash your berries, slice them up, throw them in a pot, do a little magic, and BAM! You have the perfect strawberry dessert topping.

Gluten-free Strawberry Shortcake Cupcakes

Summer is finally here! That means it's time for fresh, sweet, summer fruits. Strawberries are the tell-all signal that summer is officially upon us. We can't wait to go to our local berry farm and pick our own berries in this house! I know you can get them at the grocery store, but those really can't compare to fresh ones. They're so much sweeter and juicier, it's unbelievable. Pure perfection.

These Gluten-free Strawberry Shortcake Cupcakes are the perfect dessert to utilize your fresh-picked berries. The vanilla cupcake is butter based, but there is also sour cream added in to pump up the moisture. I made these in a jumbo muffin pan so they would be the perfect size to make single serve shortcakes. Just slice them in half and add the strawberry topping and whipped cream -- super easy! The cake holds up beautifully to the strawberry topping and whipped cream. I even left a fully assembled shortcake in the refrigerator overnight and it was still perfect the next day. I'm sure these strawberry shortcake cupcakes will become a summer favorite for you, just like they are at my house.

THE BEST Gluten-free Texas Sheet Cake

It looks good, doesn't it? This is another recipe that I got from my mom. She LOVES chocolate and so do I. Maybe she passed her love of chocolate down 🤷🏻‍♀️.
