Gluten free vegan raspberry pinwheel cookies. What’s not to love about a sugar cookie with a swirl of sweet raspberry jam and a sprinkling of sparkling sugar?

No waiting forever for them to cool. Just mix, bake and enjoy. Cookie making is always a good idea. There are so many reasons I love this time of year, but one reason ... read more
