Description:
These are so delicious no one will ever know the difference. They are easy to make and flatten out all on their own. I use vegetable shortening. You can substitute 2c Gluten Free Baking Mix for the individual flours.
Ingredients:
3/4 c shortening 2 tsp baking soda
1 c sugar 2 tsp xanthan gum
1 egg 1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 c molasses 1 tsp ground ginger
1 3/4 c sorghum flour 1/4 tsp ground cloves
1/4 c chickpea flour Sugar to coat cookie
2 T sweet rice flour dough balls
Directions:
Cream shortening and sugar. Add egg and molasses. Mix thoroughly. Stir together sorghum flour, chickpea flour, sweet rice flour, soda, cinnamon, ginger and cloves. Stir into the creamed mixture. Refrigerate until firm. About 1 hour. Form dough into 1 1/2 inch balls, roll in white sugar. Place on a parchment lined or well greases cookie sheet. Bake in preheated 350° oven for 12-15 minutes. Cool on wire rack. Eat fresh or freeze.
Makes 4 dozen small cookies or 3 dozen medium size cookies.
For a change of pace omit the ground ginger and use 2 tsp of cinnamon.
Make the dough balls smaller for more cookies.

 | Exercises are Mood Altering | | Proper exercises can even elicit powerful mood-lifting changes. In fact, a major study performed at Duke University Medical Center in England showed that certain exercises can be just as effective as some of the most prescribed medications when it comes to alleviating major depression. The study looked at 156 elderly patients diagnosed with major depressive disorder over a 16-week period. The participants were assigned to three separate groups: group 1 exercised but had no antidepressants; group 2 took anti-depressant medication with no exercise; and group 3 took antidepressant medication and combined this with exercise. To the amazement of the researchers, all three groups showed remarkably similar improvements in their depressive states following the 16-week trial. This study, as well as numerous others, has proven that exercise should be considered a viable alternative to medication when it comes to one of our most treated disorders of aging. |
