Flourless Chocolate Cookies

Flourless Chocolate Cookies are an awesome way to go gluten-free on cookies, without sacrificing the rich chocolate flavor and chewiness. They have an egg white base with powdered sugar instead of regular granulated sugar, and bake flatter, but taste delicious.

They are also very easy to make, and require that you only mix all the ingredients together in one bowl before baking!

It’s More Than Just a Gift Card Pt. 2

Michael Metzler Jr.

.

With this card you can buy

Fireworks for the fourth of july,

TVs, games, and even a fly,

The one thing is, it can’t make you die.

.

But you can buy locks, dogs, and keys!

Cats, and worms, and sometimes fleas!

Ribbons, stuffing, ships and flags!

Hi-hats, teacups, big blue bags!

.

Drums and cymbals, and lo, the flu!

Socks and sleeves, and shirts for you!

Red and green and white and blue!

There is no thing this card can’t do.

.

So if you see this lying around

On a window sill, or, dare I say, the ground,

Do not hesitate, not for one minute,

For not a thousand bucks could win it.

.

It is a priceless piece of plastic,

Not anything on earth could buy it.

So do not drop, eat or discard.

I tell you true:

It is more than a gift card.

Flourless Chocolate Cake

Flourless Chocolate Cake is an awesome way to go off gluten without even noticing! In fact, making a chocolate cake without flour allows it to be even richer, full of chocolate flavor, and very moist.

When you eat this cake, you don’t even feel like you are going off gluten, because it tastes almost like brownies, and it’s hard to believe that there are no grains whatsoever in it.  You could even make it dairy free if you substituted coconut oil for the butter in the recipe.

This cake also allows the freedom to garnish with whatever you desire; fruit and caramel sauces, sprinkled with confectioners sugar, you name it. It is just as easy (if not easier) to make as regular chocolate cake and is just as rewarding.

So feel free to try it and let me know how it goes! (recipe below)


It’s More Than Just a Gift Card PART 1

Poem by Michael Metzler JR.

If you see this lying here

And see it littered far and near,

Do not question or dare discard;

I tell you: It’s more than just a gift card.

.

You can earn free drinks, and sometimes more,

If you bring it to the store,

But be specific, not any store will do.

It has to be the store that gave it to you.

.

Register this card for free awards

Register for boots and swords,

Register for lumps of clay

There are so many awards to get today.

.

For, this card can get you swirled

Coffee in a cup, and yes, the WORLD,

If you grasp the chance and dash,

And do not throw it in the trash.

.

It is plastic for good reason,

It can withstand many a season,

Biodegrade, it will not do,

But will remain just as your shoe.

.

Do not think, not for a moment,

That this card is an unnecessary component,

Do not wait, do not think,

With this, you can remodel–yes–your sink!

For Pt. II, see my next post! 🙂
