Chocolate Chip Cookie Surprise

So for those who can have dairy, this is the most delicious dessert in the universe (to me and co-workers anyways).

What you need:

36 gluten free cookies...roughly a bit smaller than a cup coaster in diameter. I use Betty Crocker's gluten free chocolate chip cookies.

Milk

I large tub of cool whip

All you do is layer cookies and cool whip.

In a standard size dish that is 4 inches deep, you'll want 4 layers total.

Start with cookies for the bottom. Dip them in milk so they soften...otherwise they stay crunchy....not good. So one layer of cookie and then a layer of cool whip. Make sure the cookies are covered completely, but not more than 1/2 inch thick. Then another layer of dipped cookies...layer of cool whip. Save one or two cookies to crumble on top. If eating soon, just place in the fridge. If making for the next day, place in freezer. It thaws out in a short amount of time and guaranteed to please anyone who eats it!

Before my gluten/wheat problem, I planned to do this with oreos. I never was able to. I have yet to find a cookie comparable to oreos.

Good gawd...wish I had never read this...will dream about it all day! If you switched ice cream for cool whip you could have a delightful ice cream birthday cake.

Drool, drool, drool!!!!!

The cookies closest to oreos that I have found are Kinnikitoos. Not sure if I spelled it right but they are similar to oreos. I have tried many other brands and they never compare. I think my husband would go nuts for the oreo and ice cream version because cookies and cream is his favorite but since going gluten-free over 5 years ago I have not even made the attempt.

Yes I would love some oreos....kinikinnick...or however it's spelled turned me off their brand when I tried the pre-made bread. Yuck.

I will have to check out the oreo-like cookies they make, that is if my local whole foods can order it for me.

My dd would love this, maybe with some chocolate syrup drizzled on top! Her birthday is in 2 weeks, then the holidays. We have to try this soon... Thanks for sharing ;) Sounds fluffy and squishy...mmm!

I was thinking of ice cream too or beating in some cream cheese, she loves either and all! Maybe with a layer of pie filling...the ideas are endless! Or make a chocolate layer with the cream cheese, cool whip, cocoa and some powdered sugar. Nuts? Coconut? A layer of pudding? I only have a small cool whip but I have everything else and I can bake cookies to freeze ahead of time. Sounds easy!!

Fluffy dreaming here, sorry! I think I will surprise her with it on her 21st birthday coming up...Thanks so much!!!

It's a base idea really. I've thought of all SORTS of ways to make it differently and adding things...I think adding chocolate syrup to the cool whip and using chocolate cake layers...MMmmm...

The possibilities are endless.

You're welcome! :) Glad I could help!

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      I'd go with a vodka tonic, but that's just me😉

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      Tea Bags and Gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      Inconclusive results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.
