Hello again everyone. The end of the week is finally here so that means it’s time for another Gluten Free Friday. As you might have noticed from the blog, I really don’t do desserts much. I don’t typically make desserts and I usually only eat sweets over the holidays when family makes them. However, Magic Cookie Bars are probably one of my favorite sweets to eat and today I bring you a delicious gluten free version of Magic Cookie Bars. The base of these cookie bars is basically the flourless peanut butter cookies, which I posted a recipe for on the blog previous, and I really think this is an ingenious idea. I wish I could say I came up with this on my own but unfortunately I did not. Regardless, these are so good that I just had to share. They’re very very rich so if you don’t like rich desserts you could always use half sunbutter (Sunflower Butter) and half peanut butter. Give these a try and of course drop a line in the comments below to let me know what you think. In case you didn’t see my Yummy Recipe Wednesday post this week, I will be on vacation next week so there will be no recipes next week. Of course I only do Gluten Free Friday every other week so these will still be on schedule when I get back. Everyone have a great week.
