Tips on Ordering Gluten Free Christmas Cookie Kits

First, I am not a baker. If you email through the contact form on this page, you will not get connected to a bakery. The email will come to me, and you cannot order from me. And then we’ll have to play tag, and ain’t nobody got time for that. (lol) 

Second, each business name is linked to the interview I did with the owner. While I have included ordering methods for each business, you can find their contact information is AT THE BOTTOM of their respective interview. That includes links to their website, email and social media accounts, as well as their physical store address, if they have one.

Gluten Free Christmas Sugar Cookie Recipes

Want to  make cookies from scratch? Here are the recipes I recommend. 

Flippin Delicious Gluten Free Sugar Cookie Recipes (Contains Eggs and Dairy) 

This is my go-to sugar cookie recipes. The blog post is long. However, this is because Flippin Delicious has taken the time tto answer just about any question one could ask. She does give tips on making this recipe egg free and dairy free. She also discusses which flour blends have worked best for her.

Eating Gluten and Dairy Free Softest Sugar Cookie Recipe (Dairy Free. Contains Eggs) 

I have not tried this recipe. However, this website has increasingly been my go-to for recipes that are dairy free. It does use sweet rice flour, and not a traditional gluten free flour blend. 

This Dairy Free & Gluten Free Sugar Cookie recipe from What Molly Made uses Bob’s Red Mill 1:1 Flour (Blue Bag) 

Allergylicious Best Gluten Free Vegan Sugar Cookie Recipe (Dairy Free and Egg Free) 

I adore Allergylicious. And I love her adorable llama sugar cookies. If you need cookies that are gluten, egg and dairy free, this is the one I would recommend

Tips on Decorating Sugar Cookies

My friend Megan from A Dash of Megnut is the QUEEN of decorated sugar cookies. Follow this link for her archive of all her gluten free decorated cookies. She gives recipes for royal icing, and more. 

Cookie Decorating Tools

I am a huge fan of all things Wilton. I highly recommend their 101 Cookie Cutter Set and their 3 tier cooling rack. In addition, I recommend the Totally Bamboo rolling pin. It’s long but lightweight. (These are affiliate links, and I earn a small commission.)

Hopefully this helps you make some great memories, plus allows you to support Michigan small business owners. If you know others who would benefit from this information, please share it on your social media channels. 

Wishing you a Happy and Healthy Holiday Season.

Gluten Free Cookie Monster

I love cookies. I would eat them all day, every day if I could. While I will never turn down a chocolate chip cookie, I do have a fondness for a good sugar cookie. These gluten-free Halloween cut out cookies are so easy to make, they will fulfill any cookie craving.

I won a bag of GF Jules (a.k.a Jules Shepard) Gluten Free Cut-Out Cookie Mix years ago through a Twitter party. Jules and my other pals Cindy and Erica spent a weekend retreat and this delightful mix came in a box with other items from #GfBloggerRetreat sponsors.

Do You Know GF Jules?

You know what I love about GF Jules? (Besides her great mixes, like the graham cracker one I used to make these awesome Gluten-Free S’mores bars)  She’s so REAL. She’s down to earth and totally approachable. She answers her own e-mail and Facebook messages.

She’s been an encouragement to me and so many others. Did you know that she was involved in the mission of getting congress to improve gluten-free food labeling laws? All through persistence and the world’s tallest gluten-free cake. But I digress.

Best Cookie Cutters EVER

So back to these gluten-free Halloween cut out cookies. Even if you’re not a master cake decorator of baker like GF Jules, you can easily make these cookies. First, work with a good sugar cookie recipe. Next, work with good tools. I have quickly become a Wilton addict convert. I bought their 101 Cookie Cutter Set (affiliate link) over a decade ago.

The cookie cutters are made of durable plastic. More than fifteen years later, they still are cutting through dough, bread and any other soft items I want to get creative with. I LOVE that this particular set is color coded for holidays and themes. Orange for Halloween, green for Christmas, yellow for Easter and so forth.

Gluten Free Premade Frosting

Aren’t these ghost gluten-free Halloween cut out cookies just the cutest? Just a little bit of white frosting (I used Duncan Hines) and they pop. (I’d say “come alive,” but they are ghosts after all.) Should you want to make your own frosting, try this recipe for Gluten Free Royal Icing from Celiac Mama.

While one can use a sandwich bag in a pinch, I really prefer these Wilton Disposable Decorating Bags. They’re much thicker than a sandwich bag and withstand much more hand pressure. I usually use one of my Wilton decorating metal tips for this, but accidentally forgot to put the coupler in the bag. Know what? It was easier to handle without the tips!

My Best Decorating Tip

Now I know what you’re thinking. You’re a terrible decorator. Frosting these gluten-free Halloween cut out cookies really IS easy. If you can draw a straight line (or even if you can’t), you can do this. My biggest “tip” is to allow the point of the bag just barely touch the cookie. Pipe the frosting slowly until you get the hang of it.

For these gluten-free Halloween cut out cookies, I focused on outlining the cookies. Then I simply added frosting in the center of the cookie with a back and forth motion. Not sure how you want to decorate them? I’ll let you in on a blogger secret. Go look at Pinterest or do a Google image search of what you want to make. Look at images that seem doable for you and then HAVE FUN! Cookies should be fun!

Homemade Sugar Cookie Dough Option

So here are my gluten-free Halloween cut out cookies, all finished. Some of them were just how I envisioned, some are not. But that’s the beauty of making sugar cookies and frosting them. It’s the experience, the uniqueness. And no matter what they look like, they still taste delicious!

Want to make cookies now and don’t have time to order this mix? If you need an egg and dairy free version, try these Vegan Sugar Cookies from Allergylicious. Able to eat eggs and dairy? These Gluten Free Sugar Cookies from Flippin’ Delicious get rave reviews! Looking for more recipe ideas? Visit my Gluten Free Halloween Pinterest board.
