12 Gluten, Egg, & Dairy-free Christmas Cookies

November 26, 2012 by Cara

Last year, I teamed up with Brooke over at Crackers on the Couch and de-glutenized and veganized her amazing 12 Days Collection of Christmas Cookies. It was such a fun experience that her and I are back at it again this Christmas. Just in case you missed it, here is the original collection {and don’t forget to stay tuned next week for the 2nd Edition to The 12 Days of Christmas Cookies}…

      Isn’t there something cathartic about baking during this time of the year? I simply love it too!

        I’m on it! I need a sugar fix today! Did I all ready mention how much I love your GF mix? I have several neighbors with celiac sprue or gluten intolerance. Before I made up your mix, my GF delivery treats to these friends were seriously lacking. I wouldn’t have been surprised if they’d tossed them in the garbage!

          You are so sweet! I am soooo happy that it’s working out great for you! Hooray πŸ™‚
