mamaw replied to 1974girl's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I just use a bit of Pam(lightly)....I also use pizzelle maker & while still warm I drape them over small dessert bowls to harden & they just fall off.. You can coat these as well in white or dark choc....dry choc & add your goodies... I've also found choc dessert cups ready made that contained no gluten... -
I don't think McD's burgers themselves (no bun)contain gluten but the risk of CC is great as eating out at any place...And I agree if I were going to ever consider cheating I would choose something wonderful not a pink slime burger.. Crap happens & I hope you learned a great lesson DON"T CHEAT EVER>>>>...
