You say it's your birthday....

t's the boy's birthday too, yeah....little Beatles for you.  Yep, the boy turned 9 and on Mother's Day no less!  So of course we had to make cake. And a treat for school.  The boy's favorite - chocolate cake, which also happens to be my favorite cake too. And his choice for school treat - chocolate chip cookies.  Yum!

Have I told you how much I love love love me do King Arthur Flour and their GF products?  I know I've featured King Arthur GF flour in previous blogs.  Well today I'm featuring two of their GF mixes:  chocolate cake mix and cookie mix.

First the chocolate cake mix. King Arthur Flour has one of the moistest, chocolaty cake mixes I've ever used.  They are more pricey than most, but worth it.  You can find on their website:  King Arthur Gluten Free but I can find their mixes at most grocery stores.  Birthday boy wanted to shake it up baby now and add some chocolate chips to the batter and we topped it with Cool Whip Frosting in vanilla - seriously one of the best store-bought icings I've ever had.  So light and fluffy!  You can find Cool Whip Icings in the frozen food aisle near their whipped topping.  The chocolate flavor is equally fabulous.

It was a super sweet day to celebrate my mom and my boy. 



 

And the party continues with a treat to share with his class at school - chocolate chip cookies!  And once again, my main man King Arthur came through with oooey, gooey goodness.

 

 

I love their cookie mix because it's a basic cookie dough and you can pick your favorite add-ins - peanut butter chips, toffee, chips, craisins....whatever please pleases you. 

 

Buttery, golden gluten free goodness.  And unlike other mixes I've tried, these don't fall apart and crumble into oblivion. That's why King Arthur GF mixes have been crowned family favorite!  

Can't wait for the kids to enjoy them!

 

 

Now listen- do you want to know a secret?  I will have a seriously amazing treat to share with you next week when I pick up a very special, super-fab cake for the boy's birthday party.  Tune in next week to see this one!

 

In the meanwhile please please me and share your favorite GFP2B sweet treat!
