My take on the cookie(:

Today I made cookies and no, not the potato chip ones, although I will! These cookies are chocolate chip with both milk and white chocolate and some dried cranberrys. These cookies are also gluten-free. Throughout the time I've been on the gluten-free diet, I've learned that not very many people even know what gluten is and out of ignorance, which isn't necissarily their fault, they try to convice me that I shouldn't be dieting because I'm too thin. Today, my friends, I am going to educate you, if you don't already know. Gluten is a mixture of proteins. It is found in wheat grains and gives dough it's elastic texture. In a nut shell, it is in all wheat products, and just about everything else you'll find in your grocery store. I have Celiac disease which is just a harsh way of saying that I have a permanent intolerance to gluten. Instead of eating regular cake I have to eat gluten-free cake and gluten-free cookies. This can be a serious problem to me most times because as hard as a lot of companies try, their gluten-free products are disgusting. Fortunately we have kind, talented bakers who can make delicious gluten-free products over in the Betty Crocker Kitchen.
Today I tested out Mrs. Crocker's cookie mix and let me tell you, it was heaven. I have not had a more real tasting cookie in months. Betty most definitely beats Bob's Red Mill mixes by twenty. I don't know twenty of what exactly, just twenty.

These were my first gluten-free cookies by Bob's Red Mill. Because gluten gives dough it's elasticity, the dough tends to come out crumbly and dry. Forming these cookies was like building a sandcastle, which is really bad on my terms.

This is what Betty's cookies looked like before they were cooked, like regular cookies. Already I was excitd. XD When they were finished baking they were a little grainy but that's a given because of the lack of gluten, it happens. For the most part the cookies met my standards. The milk chocolate chips were the perfect combination with the cranberry and white chocolate because they balanced out the taste and kept the cookies interesting. The worst thing a chef can make is someting that will bore the consumer.

I give these cookies a five star rating. I think every cookie-holic should try these.
At the end of the semester, I think I'm going to have a poll where I'll make something and brng it in for the class to try. It won't be bacon ice cream because I unfortunatly don't have an ice cream maker but there are other interesting things I can make. What do you think, would you guys be up for it?
