Winter Solstice Cookies

Recipes, Winter Solstice

When I first found out I was a celiac (as an adult) I lost my joy for baking for a few years. I had to basically relearn how to bake before I could experiment and be creative again. I am finally back and excited to experiment with colors and flavors again. Last year I focused on natural colors and herbal flavors and these are some of my favorites.
