Sweet Debbie’s Cookbook Give Away


I was so excited when my friend, Debbie Adler, owner of the famous Sweet Debbie’s Organic Cupcakes in LA, sent me her new cookbook:  Sweet Debbie’s Organic Treats.


Like for realz excited!


I’m always looking for ways to clean up my desserts without losing the yum factor.


And Debbie’s recipes are all free of:



gluten
dairy
soy
sugar
nuts

No allergens!


Debbie’s son was born with multiple food allergies. Without any ambitions of Food Network stardom, Debbie was inspired to become her son’s allergen-free Iron Chef as well as create a bakery so that children like her son, as well as those with diabetes, celiac disease and autism, could safely enjoy mouth-watering and nutritious desserts.


And guess what?!  I get to give away THREE FREE Sweet Debbie cookbooks!!!! (Thank you, Debbie!)

I couldn’t wait to dive into the recipes so while the kids were at school, I made the Double Chocolate Chip Glazed-Over Donut Holes.


It took me all about 30 minutes tops to make these (and of course pop a few into my mouth!).


I got permission from Debbie to share this recipe with you.


Wanna make chocolate donut holes? Duh! I know you do!



Double Chocolate Chip Glazed-Over Donut Holes

Ingredients:


Donut Holes:


15 x 10 sheet parchment paper

1 1/2 cups all-purpose gluten-free flour (Debbie has a recipe for this in her cookbook but used a pre-made flour I got at Whole Foods)


2 Tbsp. cacao powder

1/4 tsp. sea salt

1/2 tsp. baking soda

3 Tbsp. coconut oil

1/2 cup rice milk (I used unsweetened almond milk since I had that on hand and I like a nutty flavor)

1 tsp. vanilla extract

1/2 tsp. orange extract (I SO love the taste of orange with chocolate!)

1/3 cup chocolate chips (non-dairy, gluten-free)


Glaze:



2 Tbsp. coconut oil

2 Tbsp. cacao powder

1 Tbsp. water


Directions:

Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees F. Line pan with parchment paper.

To make the donut holes, whisk together the flour, powder, soda in a large bowl. Make a well in the middle.


Add oil, milk, and extracts. Pour into the flour mixture and stir to combine. Fold in chocolate chips.

Take 1/2 Tbsp. of dough and shape into a ball. Place the ball on the prepared pan. Repeat until you have used up all the dough, placing the balls about 2 inches apart on the pan.



Bake holes for 11-12 minutes.

Transfer the pan from the oven to wire rack to cool.

Make the glaze: Stir ingredients in a bowl.

Frost each donut hole with the glaze and place on wire rack to set.

Put in pretty paper holders then eat up!


Makes 20 donut holes




Disclosure:  I ate 3 donut holes before glazing! They are gooooooood!


What do you say?

Since processed sugars and allergens can cause a boatload of health issues, what is one way you “clean up” with your desserts? I want to hear your idea!


PS.  I hope you win Sweet Debbie’s Cookbook!!!!! Don’t forget to enter!
