GF Sugar Cookies
1 box Betty Crocker GF yellow cake mix
1 stick butter
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract (McCormick's is GF)
1 container Betty Crocker vanilla frosting
Combine the first four ingredients in a medium sized bowl and stir with a large spoon. The mix will be sticky, no worries. Form small balls/heaps of dough and place into greased cookie sheet. Bake 7-9 minutes (depending on how soft you like yours) at 350 degrees. Place on wax paper to cool. Once cooled, frost and add decor of your liking.
*These cookies taste more like the real thing than any other GF cookie I have tasted. None of that crumbly, dry business.
GF Sausage Balls
Forgot to take my own picture. Picture from Deaghaidh Recipes |
1 lb Owens Sausage
8-10 oz. cheddar cheese
Approx 1/4 cup skim milk
Combine the first three ingredients in a large bowl. Mix with your hands (this will be quite a workout on your hands). As ingredients begin to become doughy, add a splash of milk into mixture. This will keep them from drying out, as well as help with mixing. Continue adding milk (I approximated that it would be 1/4 cup) until the mixture has absorbed the milk and is firm enough to form into balls. Form into small balls (smaller than a golf ball) and place onto greased cookie sheet leaving space between. Bake for 15 minutes at 350 degrees. Immedietely remove from cookie sheet, placing on wax paper to cool.
*I refrigerate these after the first day, and nuke for 30 seconds to eat.
Yes, these were both indulgent items. But hey, it's the holidays.
Hey friend! Glad to see you blogging and sharing your sweet self with others. Happy eating and Merry Christmas!
