Food Friday - King Arthur’s Gluten-Free Cookie Mix

Definitely wanted to try the King Arthur Gluten Free Cookie Mix. The Betty Crocker kind is very fall apart and grainy. Taste good, but not good texture. So I was excited to try another kind. These are very different.

Even the dough is eatable with this kind.

Use some ghirardelli chips. I would probably try smaller ones next time.

The dough looked just like "regular" cookie dough.

All done.

Over all thoughts are a little mixed. They taste very good, definitely more cookie like. The first couple trays I thought I didn't cook long enough and so the next ones were cooked longer. Cooking longer is good for immediate eating, but as the cookies sit for any real amount of time they harden. A couple days later they were hard. Which the husband loves, because he loves crunchy cookies, but I am a fan of the soft. So next time I will use smaller chips and will cook them on the lower time frame. I also might try making a giant cookie . . . the husband loves those and I think this mix would work well for it.

I recommend them as they are very close to "normal" cookies.

  2. Try popping the hard cookies in the microwave for 15-30s. It does wonders for GF baked goods.

  3. I'm a soft and chewy cookie girl too... unless it's shortbread.
