These are INSANE. I was in shock after the first bite and utterly astounded that I had found my dream cookie y’all. These gluten free dark chocolate ginger cookies are a case study in indulgence, packed with dutched cocoa powder and chopped dark chocolate for double the chewy, gooey, chocolately goodness, and studded with sultry, rich candied ginger. The ultimate dark chocolate cookie with all of the elegance and spice of crystalized ginger gems. I cannot believe I haven’t tried this combo in cookie form before!! (I did try it in muffin form with these giant chocolate ginger muffins, but I’m now going to be trying it in all recipes…

Giant Gluten Free Chocolate Ginger Muffins
It’s NOVEMBER 2021 y’all, can you believe it? Tis the season for everything cozy shmozy and comforting (at least in the northern hemisphere and in locales where winter actually feels different than fall). So here you go, the newest addition to the GIANT muffin train: these giant gluten free chocolate ginger muffins, complete with deep dark chocolate muffin and gems of crystalized ginger. It’s the ultimate chocolate + ginger combo so if you love both of those ingredients separately, you’re nearly-bound to love these. For those of you just joining, we started creating GIANT muffin recipes about 5 months ago after reminiscing over the giant Costco muffins we used to…

Gluten Free Decorated Gingerbread Cookies
These may some of the most iconic cookies known to children across the Christmas-celebrating world. From finger-painted gingerbread people at age three, to a one-legged gingerbread fellow in Shrek, decorated gingerbread cookies hold nostalgia and holiday cliche in the perfectly-spiced, cookie-cutter package. So it seemed only appropriate that this year, of all years, we go back to our deepest, nearly-forgotten family traditions and make a truck load of gingerbread cookies and spend an entire evening decorating them and turning the kitchen table into a royal icing Jackson Pollock. This was actually our first time making homemade gingerbread dough in recent memory, so we totally underestimated how many gingerbread cookies could…

Gluten Free Parsnip and Ginger Tart
Parsnips are far and beyond one of the most over-looked root veggies when it comes to sweet dishes (anything, really, or maybe we just haven’t gotten the memo), and they’re AWESOME. They look like white carrots, and taste similar, with less bitterness and more sweetness which makes us wonder… why did carrot cake overtake parsnip cake as one of the top 5 most common cake flavors in the US? It’s a mystery to us, so we’re making it our mini-mission to find great and wonderful reasons to start picking up these colorless carrot cousins more often on your grocery runs. And they’re just as good on the savory side! We…

Gingerbread Swiss Roll with Spiced Buttercream
This lovely russet Swiss Roll is a continuation of our Search for Delicious this holiday season, and the desire for soft (not rock-hard) gingerbread dessert items. Instead of heading in the direction of cookie-cutter vaguely-human shapes with limbs that may be harder to break than actual bones, we did a 180 and drafted a gingerbread version of our favorite (if you can’t tell from all of the other similar posts) recipe: the Swiss Roll. If you’re new to the blog, you may want to do a bit of background research on our burgeoning obsession with this light, aesthetically-pleasing sponge cake (see the Pistachio Rose roll, or the Chocolate Coffee roll,…

Soft Gingerbread Cake
It’s been a while since our last post, but that doesn’t mean we haven’t been baking and developing new recipes! (quite the opposite, actually). And now that we’re hurtling towards the rest of the holiday season, we figured that it was about time for something a bit more festive, leading us to Kendra’s Soft Gingerbread Cake. If you’ve ever been sadly disappointed in rock-hard gingerbread cookies or stale gingerbread people, this cake is for you. I distinctly remember making and then smashing gingerbread houses as a kid and always being massively let down by the flat slabs of “gingerbread” that I gingerly picked out of the rubble. For an easier,…

Gluten Free Strawberry Ginger Snacking Cake
Dusky summer evenings or hazy summer afternoons are best enjoyed with friends. And by friends I mean wedges of cake – namely, this gluten free strawberry snacking cake. I realize I’m a bit late to the pool party (unless you’re in the southern hemisphere, in which case, get ready for a summer full of this ruby-studded dream, we’re jealous), but if you happen to pick up a pint or two of the season’s tail-end strawberries, by all means make this cake and enjoy it too. This baking endeavor was inspired by the ineffable genius of Bon Appetit mag, who made it their mission earlier this summer to create THE strawberry…
