Gluten Free Cookie Swap CONTEST Rules:
- Once you’ve entered one or more gluten free cookie recipes, ask your friends, neighbors and co-workers to vote for your recipe by “liking” it on Facebook or Pinterest. Winning recipes are those with the most “likes.”
- Do not post the same recipe more than once.
- Only photos submitted between November 25 – December 31, 2016 will be eligible for the 2016 contest.
- On December 31, 2016 at 11:59pm, the contest closes. The top 10 vote-getting cookie recipes, as determined by the number of “likes” on Facebook and re-pins or likes on Pinterest, will be selected for the Bake-Off. Those entrants will be asked to send in 2 dozen of their gluten-free cookies (baked according to their recipe and only using certified gluten-free flours) for a blind taste test. The top 3 ranked cookies will win our top 3 prizes!
NOTE: all recipes must be gluten free and made using Certified Gluten Free flours. To see the certification seals and learn how to identify products certified by independent agencies, hop to my article on Shopping for Safe Gluten Free Products.
