I am so excited to partner with Bob’s Red Mill to share with you this gluten free treat that is a perfect addition to your holiday baking. While this post is sponsored, all thoughts and opinions are my own.

It is baking season! I get so excited once the holidays hit because my kitchen is always busy with some kind of cooking or baking going on. Right now, we are baking red velvet cake mix cookies for the upcoming Girl Scout bake sale my daughter is participating in. They are raising money to buy clothes and toys for children in our area that are in need.
