Come along & listen to my thought process as we try to gluten-free & dairy-free-ify another recipe! This time it’s Lynja’s* Compost Cookies from the Nick DiGiovanni Knife Drop cookbook.
We’re trying out some fun new goodies too as mix-ins: I found some slightly “cleaner” candy-coated df/vegan chocolate chips to use as M&Ms, as well as naturally coloured gf cornstarch-free sprinkles from Pure Foods. (Though I wasn’t a huge fan of the crunchy-ness of the candy-coated choc chips in these cookies, they did taste good, and we’ll try them in something else - or maybe even just as an ice cream sundae topping?!?!) ;)

Looking for a mixer? We LOVE everything Kitchenaid. They are super high quality and last forever (I still have my stand mixer from 14+ years ago!). We have all 3 mixers (I’m a bit obsessed with Kitchenaid…) for different uses, but if you're just starting out, a hand mixer or Artisan Stand Mixer are very versatile and will get you started!!
Hand Mixer: https://amzn.to/3wxVxNW
Artisan 5Qt Stand Mixer: https://amzn.to/3Tms3M8
Heavy Duty 7Qt Stand Mixer: https://amzn.to/42YHTQh
Fav Cookie Scoops: https://amzn.to/3SZvkiZ (I love these ones because they don't get water stuck in them when you wash them like the 2-piece scoops - which then drips out into your next recipe - gross!)
