Gluten Free Nut Butter Sandwich Cookies


Since receiving The Delight Gluten-Free Cookbook, I've been eager to try a lot of recipes. A lot of them are very easy so of course I went straight to the dessert section. This one was by far one of the best looking out of all and one that did not disappoint. I guarantee if you make these cookies for your kid or really anybody that they will automatically be in cookie heaven. I decided to top my cookie off with So Delicious Dairy Free Ice Cream and trust me, it made it so much better.
