The Winner of the Lemonade Cookies is

Those brownie bites look divine! I’d love to try the lemonade cookies!

I love to bake. I find it rather relaxing and basically just fun. So normally I do all my own baking, but with the boys being on a GFCF diet I have found I spend enough time making GFCF bread that I no long bake for Larry and I. I also don’t want to tell the boys that I’ve made something they can’t have. I know that is the way life is, but I hate to do that to them. So when I had the chance to try Trashy Cookies, I was thrilled. I love a good home made cookie!

Ashley from Trashy Cookies sent me a sample of her Red Robot Cookies, robot shaped sugar cookies covered in icing and For the Love of Liz. The Liz Logelin Foundation receives a portion of the proceeds for each Red Robot Cookie bought. And she sent me a new cookie just out this month. It is the lemonade cookie and it is marvelous. I’m seriously jealous that she has a recipe this good and I don’t know how to make it. These cookies are soft madeleines with just the right lemon flavor. I love lemon baked goods in the summer. They are just perfect for the hot weather and these cookies deliver exactly the right amount of refreshing lemon flavor in a beautifully crafted cake cookie.

Trashy Cookies is offering 1 dozen lemonade cookies and 1 dozen sugar ‘ducks’. To enter to win simply head over to Trashy Cookies and take a look at what other cookies she has to offer. Come back and leave me a comment telling me which cookies have caught your eye and which cookie you would prefer (lemonade or sugar ducks) because there will be 2 winners. One gets the lemonade cookies and the other gets the ducks. Please remember to include your email address or make sure it is available on your blog. (This is a mandatory entry)

My hubby loves good cornbread and since the boys have been on the GFCF (Gluten free/casein free) diet we have not really had good cornbread. I have a few recipes but they all call for regular wheat flour and although Larry and I can eat it, we try not to serve too many foods that the boys can’t have. We would rather eat most foods as a family. Enter Pamela’s products.

If you do any shopping at health food stores or organic markets you have probably seen some of Pamela’s Products on the shelves. They offer a wide variety of gluten free products; some that are also casein/dairy free. They have everything from traditional gluten free cookies to baking mixes. We got to try out both the Cornbread and Muffin Mix and the Simplebites Extreme Chocolate Mini Cookies. Both are gluten free and non-dairy, and the Cornbread Mix is Kosher. Another really wonderful things about the Cornbread Mix is the fact that it is Non-GMO, Organic corn meal!

I had made some homemade chicken chili the other night but wasn’t feeling up to making any sides to go with it, so Larry decided to try out the Pamela’s Cornbread Mix. There were many options on the back of the bag as to how to make the cornbread; he opted to use oil and organic raw sugar. The batter seemed thin to him but we baked it just like the recipe indicated and it made a fantastic Gluten free/casein free bread to go with our chicken chili. I was really pleased with how delicious it was.

And I couldn’t resist opening the bag of Simplebites Extreme Chocolate Mini Cookies, because they just looked so darn good. And I was right, they were good. They remind me of the chocolate part of an Oreo cookie and somewhere in the back of my mind I am remembering a very similar taste from somewhere in my childhood. But I can’t grasp it. Well, at least it reminds me of being a kid. The boys enjoyed the cookies very much, but I could really see using them as a crust for a Gluten free/Casein free Frozen Dessert Pie! I have been eyeing a few “regular” recipes in my Woman’s Day magazine trying to figure out how to recreate them as GFCF compliant. I think Pamela’s Simplebites Extreme Chocolate Mini Cookies would be the perfect substitute crust and the Luna and Larry’s Coconut Bliss Frozen Dessert would make a great filling.

Would you like to win either the Pamela’s Cornbread and Muffin Mix or the Simplebites Extreme Chocolate Mini Cookies? I have a chance for 2 people to win, one will win the Cornbread and the other will win the Chocolate Mini Cookies. Simply head over to Pamela’s Products and tell me what other items you would like to try. Then pop back over here and leave me a comment telling me about the product and your first choice (cornbread or cookies). Remember to leave your email address or make sure it is visible on your blog. This is a mandatory entry.
