Gluten Free Oreo Balls

Just made these last night. Not like the original Oreo Cookies, but close. If anyone knows of another cream filled chocolate cookie that can be substituted, please let me know.

1 pack Gluten Free Kinnitoos (crushed fine in food processor)

2 1/2 ounces of cream cheese (room temperature)

CandiQuick Candy Coating (or any brand of chocolate or vanilla)

1 tablespoons of oil of your choice

Mix crushed cookies and cream cheese. Roll into balls (about 2 dozen). Freeze balls on cookie sheet for about 1 hour. Melt chocolate over low heat double boiler and add oil. Mix well. Dip each ball into chocolate to coat and allow to dry on waxed paper. Store in refrigerator. AWESOME!

There is a gluten-free brand called Mi-Del we like. Very close to Oreo's but not exactly the same.

I like the Glutino brand of 'oreos' the best.

These sound horribly good.

You had me at "Oreo Balls," to be honest. I didn't even have to open up the thread.

Basically it is the do it yourself candy coating. Mines is an off brand I buy at my local grocery store. Just be sure to read the ingredients, mine only said may contain soy and milk. Chocolate bark. I used the vanilla bark becasue it is what I had in the house that was not outdated. (hadn't used this in years becasue I didn't think I would ever enjoy things like this again)

Also have a great recipe for peanut butter balls that are totally gluten free.

If you use regular chocolate chips you must add parafin wax or it will never harden. It is possible to do though. Will get the peanut butter balls recipe to you as soon as I can.

By the way, you can buy the chocolate bark at any WalMart or food store that carries baking goods.

Peanut Butter Balls

2 cups peanut butter

1 cup softened buttter

16 ounces powdered sugar

Chocolate bark for dipping (melted)

Mix first three ingredients in a large bowl. Roll into balls (makes about 100-120). Place into freezer for about 1 hour. Melt chocolate bark over low heat double boiler. Dip peanut butter balls into chocolate with tootpicks and place on wax paper to dry (you may have to repair toothpick holes with drizzled chocolate). Pack in resealable container and store in cool dry place. Will last up to 2 weeks. Makes great gifts for family.

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      In the U.S., most regular wheat breads are required to be enriched with certain B-vitamins and iron, but gluten-free breads are not required to be. Since many gluten-free products are not enriched, we usually encourage people with celiac disease to consider a multivitamin. In the early 1900s, refined white flour replaced whole grains, and people began...

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      Thanks for this Russ, and good to see that it is fortified. I spend too much time looking for M&S gluten-free Iced Spiced Buns to have ever noticed this! That's interesting, Scott. Have manufacturers ever said why that should be the case?

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the U.S., most regular wheat breads are required to be enriched with certain B-vitamins and iron, but gluten-free breads are not required to be. Since many gluten-free products are not enriched, we usually encourage people with celiac disease to consider a multivitamin.  In the early 1900s, refined white flour replaced whole grains, and people began developing serious vitamin-deficiency diseases: Beriberi → caused by a lack of thiamin (vitamin B1) Pellagra → caused by a lack of niacin (vitamin B3) Anemia → linked to low iron and lack of folate By the 1930s–40s, these problems were common in the U.S., especially in poorer regions. Public-health officials responded by requiring wheat flour and the breads made from it to be “enriched” with thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and iron. Folic acid was added later (1998) to prevent neural-tube birth defects. Why gluten-free bread isn’t required to be enriched? The U.S. enrichment standards were written specifically for wheat flour. Gluten-free breads use rice, tapioca, corn, sorghum, etc.—so they fall outside that rule—but they probably should be for the same reason wheat products are.

      Keep in mind that there are drawbacks to a formal diagnosis, for example more expensive life and private health insurance, as well as possibly needing to disclose it on job applications. Normally I am in favor of the formal diagnosis process, but if you've already figured out that you can't tolerate gluten and will likely stay gluten-free anyway, I wanted to at least mention the possible negative sides of having a formal diagnosis. While I understand wanting a formal diagnosis, it sounds like she will likely remain gluten-free either way, even if she should test negative for celiac disease (Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If her symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet, it would likely signal NCGS).

All serological markers continue to increase, and the doc who did the scope said there villous atrophy visible on the scope — but we just got the biopsy pathology report back, and all it says is, “Duodenal mucosa with patchy increased intraepithelial lymphocytes, preserved villous architecture, and patchy foveolar metaplasia,” which we are told is still inconclusive…  We will have her go gluten free again anyway, but how soon would you all test again, if at all? How valuable is an official dx in a situation like this?
