GF Pizza (Thin, Regular or Deep Dish)

GF Pizza 

A few weeks ago, my son had a sleep over with a few of his friends. So, we made pizzas! They had fun making all kinds of pizza. His friends loved the pizza so much that they had a second helping...then a third helping.... They said that they were the best pizzas ever! The best part was my son was proud to tell them that they are his gluten free pizzas!

Grandma's Chocolate Fudge Pie

When I was a little girl (ok, as a big girl too), my grandmother Blanton would make her famous Chocolate Fudge Pie. I could smell it cooking the minute I walked in her house! Mmmmmmm Mmmmmm

My son came to love this famous pie too! My grandmother taught me how to make it and it is so quick and easy. Here is my gluten free version of the delicious pie!

3 Tbsp of cocoa
1 cup of sugar
1 stick of butter
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup of Gluten Free Flour Mix
1 tsp of vanilla

Melt butter. Add cocoa and sugar. Then add remaining ingredients. Pour into an unbaked gluten free pie crust. Bake at 325 for 35 minutes or until pie is firm in the middle.
