As the entire world tries to overcome the spread of coronavirus, people are turning to home-cooked meals like never before.

Life has been a whirlwind these last few weeks, to say the least. As the coronavirus continues to spread, many of us have stockpiled food and other essentials.

This amazing chocolate chip cookie creation was sparked by a good friend, fellow Flexible Cheffer, and gracious host Michal. She hosted us for a lovely Saturday lunch a few weeks ago and served the most delicious 3-ingredient cookies for dessert (that, unbeknownst to me at the time, are a classic gluten-free cookie recipe).

What do you get when you mix a scoop of frozen raspberry sorbet with a glass of rosé and a splash of gin? That’s right — a super fun, cocktail-meets-dessert float that’s perfect for your next date or girls’ night in. I first came up with this recipe when chatting with my friend Jezlan Moyet. […]
