Make sure you put Dick to use and have him wash the dishes. ;-)

Sprinkles and kisses,

The sun is bright and I’m feeling alright.

So glad it’s Sweet Sundae Sunday.

I had such a hard time figuring out how to make gluten-free and vegan sugar cookies this past week. I actually had to make them twice because the first time I ruined the batch of cookies by using olive oil instead of raw cashew butter. In the end they turned out great!

White House Sugar Cookies

Preparation Time: 5 minutes

Total Time: 50 minutes

Servings 2 1/2 dozen

Ingredients

1 1/2 cup of raw organic cashew butter

1 1/4 cup of organic pure sugar cane

3 cups of organic white rice flour

1 1/4 teaspoon of organic xanthan gum

1 teaspoon of Kosher salt

1 1/4 teaspoon of organic vanilla extract

1 cup of almond drink

a dash of  organic extra virgin olive oil

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

  1. Grease a baking sheet using a dash of olive oil and spread by using a piece of paper towel.
  2. Combine raw cashew butter, pure sugar cane, white rice flour, xanthan gum, salt and vanilla extract into a large bowl.
  3. Mix together as much as possible.
  4. Add 1/2 cup of almond drink to the large bowl.
  5. Begin to mix the ingredients using your hands.
  6. Add the other 1/2 cup of almond drink to the large bowl and continue to mix all the ingredients together using your hands.
  7. With a spoon, take the batter and roll into balls.
  8. Place on a baking sheet.
  9. Once the baking sheet is full (you should be able to fit almost 2 dozen on it) place inside the reheated oven and bake for 40 minutes.
  10. Place the cookies on a cooling rack and let stand for at least 15 minutes before serving.

Tip

The center of the cookies will be a bit raw which is actually more tasty and completely safe since there are no animal ingredients. :)

Ooh la la! Chocolate cake without having to bake! I’m not being handcuffed to the stove today.

The handcuffs used in my pin-up shot were a gift from one of New York City’s finest. Thanks Detective Dick!

I’m a bit under the weather today due to my fabulous going away party I had last night.  It’s official, I’m moving to Hawaii but don’t you worry, I’m taking you with me. ;-)

Thank you to all the Dicks and Dolls who came by to Porch to celebrate. New York City will forever be my home and I shall return.

This chocolate cake not only takes 10 minutes to make (yes, 10 minutes) but it’s also gluten-free!

This recipe is from Andrea at Give it to me Raw. Below, you’ll find it done Miss Poundcake style!
