Homemade frosting is a delicious and decadent treat that is easy to make. Great frosting can enhance a store-bought goodie or finish the finest of your homemade desserts.
Both the lemon and cinnamon versions of this frosting are delicious on carrot or spice cake. For an easy dessert, make a batch of Namaste Spice Cake and frost with homemade frosting. The cake mix can be made as a spice cake or a carrot cake and is delicious as cupcakes. Another easy-to-make and delicious cake mix is from Pamela’s Products. Pamela’s also has a terrific frosting mix, if you don’t want to make your frosting from scratch.
Gluten Free Cream Cheese Frosting Recipe
Ingredients
8 oz. cream cheese (or soy cream cheese)
Fall is here! My favorite time of year. At school we have a Starbucks on each campus I see everyone enjoying the pumpkin muffins, pumpkin coffees etc. and it drives me crazy that I can’t just run in and grab one of those delicious looking muffins with the cream cheese on them…
My family will be making these classic treats for many occasions. The kids LOVE helping to make these sweet treats and they couldn’t be any easier. 4 ingredients and you are done. 5 Tablespoons butter…
Looking for the perfect easy-to-prepare treat to take to a Halloween party? Or maybe you want to send something special in your children’s lunch? These cookies are perfect because you can make them as you need them and you don’t even need to bake! There is no need to make an entire batch. Just keep the ingredients on hand and prepare a few cookies for whenever you need something cute, creative and delicious to take with you!
My baking life changed for the better when I realized that some of the canned frostings were gluten free (I use Betty Crocker). When they go on sale, I buy a few cans of various colors and flavors and keep them in my pantry. Most versions are gluten and dairy free but make sure to read the labels carefully before making your purchase. Of course, it is very easy to make your own frosting, but something about the ease of the can makes it even so much less daunting to make a baked good. Or in the case of these cookies, assemble a baked good (you don’t even need to bake!).
My super-moist Gluten Free Glazed Orange Almond Cake recipe will have your family lining up for seconds. This cake tastes as good as it looks. The orange flavor really comes through and works well with the subtle almond undertones. This has none of the stereotypical gluten free cake issues… it is as delicious (if not more delicious) than most cakes containing gluten. It may very well be the moistest cake you have ever had! It’s texture is wonderful and very similar to banana bread.
Here’s how the construction of this pie took place…
I get given boxes of chocolates by my mother-in-law occasionally, but they always have wheat in. Added to that the amount of dairy in chocolates is enough to cause me trouble. I used to squeeze all the chocolates in a mixed box to find the ones that were firm (fortunately husband loves soft-centred chocolates) but mostly now I have just given up buying chocolates.
We have had about three hot days this summer, and thoughts turn to ice-cream. I keep coming across people posting about chocolate sorbet. This seemed a great way of having two types of treats at once.
This sorbet is very intense, and one small scoop is enough for me. It would be great with raspberries or other
