Gluten-Free Naturals Yellow Cake Mix

Soft Torpedo-shaped Creme-Filled Yellow Cake (we're calling it that so that the people who make "Twinkies" don't sue us)*

First, you'll need a canoe pan. You can pick one up at a variety of stores...like this one after you've looked high and low.

Next, prepare the Yellow Cake Mix as directed (up until the pour the batter in the pan part). Pour the batter into the canoe pan. Bake at 325 degrees for 20-25 minutes.

It should have come with an injector thingy. You can use cream-cheese based frosting, or a sweet prepared frosting that is gluten-free. (You can find some in the safe product lists.)

Make sure they are cooled on a wire rack.

* (We're sure that the people at Hostess are nice and all that, but they have a little bit more cash laying around to spend on lawyers than we do. We'd also like to say that they do make a very nice wheat-based treat there if you have someone close to you who is into that sort of thing...and they should be happy and flattered if their former customers enjoy a little comfort food.)

Gluten-Free Naturals Pancake Mix

Waffles

Prepare the pancake batter as directed on the package, but add two more tablespoons of oil (for a total of three) and whisk the extra oil in. Prepare your waffles according to your waffle iron's instructions.

As crumbs and residue can be present on waffle irons, please use extra care in making sure that the iron is gluten-free prior to making your waffles. We recommend using a waffle iron designated for gluten-free waffles. This ensures no possibility of gluten being transferred to your waffles from previously made wheat waffles.

Grasshopper Pie Crust

You can use Homemade Brownie Mix to make a chocolate "cookie-crumb" crust in pies. This is great for "leftover" brownies.

Prepare the brownies as directed. You make want to bake them a little longer to make them more crumbly. Crumb them up and press the crumbed brownies into your pie pan. You do not need to add oil or anything, just press the crumbs in, smooth them out and add your pie filling.

Tips for converting your own recipes with Cookie Blend Flour:

• Use 1 Tablespoon less Cookie Blend per cup of flour. Cookie blend can tend to “pack” in your measuring cup, and using too much flour makes cookies dry.

• Always cool cookies 2 minutes on the pan to avoid breakage, but not longer than 5 minutes or they can become difficult to remove.

• If dough is difficult to handle when making your cookies, refrigerate it 30 to 60 minutes. Refrigeration of the dough also helps the cookies increase in height.
