Hi! I’m Taryn from Design, Dining and Diapers and I’m so excited to be at The Idea Room today! Over at my place, I share DIY projects, home decor, and allergy friendly recipes. About 6 years ago I found out I was intolerant to eggs, gluten and soy and I have really enjoyed creating delicious recipes that I can indulge in. I know so many of you are also trying to find recipes that work for your dietary needs so I thought I’d share a new favorite recipe today.
Check out these Gluten Free Sugar Cookies topped with chocolate buttercream frosting and garnished with fresh strawberries. I love mixing chocolate and fruit and the strawberries are the perfect balance with the rich frosting. Perfect for summer!
I will also note that the actual cookie is also dairy free, just the frosting has a little dairy in it!
