Betty Crocker GF Cookie Mix and Giveaway!

That’s right.  In the words of my cousin Malia, “BC is rockin’ it gluten-free.”

Andy, with great joy, dove into the task of making these cookies last night.  They were pretty simple.

The results?  Overall, pretty good.

Like many (but definitely not all) gluten-free products, these cookies are a bit on the gritty side of life.  I know that grittiness really bothers some people, and others not at all.  I found that in the crispier parts of the cookies, however, the grittiness was not quite as noticeable.

Andy said that other than that, they tasted just like a wheat-based cookie.  He found them to have plenty of chocolate chips, which I actually found surprising because he usually dumps bags of chips in his cookies.  🙂

Today, the cookies had a rich, buttery flavor that I did not taste when they were fresh out of the oven.  This mix makes a good cookie, and if Betty Crocker can get a finer rice flour, then I think it will be excellent.  (And I’m sure a company like Betty Crocker will keep working on it until they think it’s perfect.)

Would you like to try out the new Betty Crocker gluten-free cookie mix?  How about all the mixes, a couple of coupons for free mixes, a shopping bag, shopping list pad, and a pen?
