Bachelor in Paradise: Sugar Cookie Pizza

Now that I have gotten hooked on the Bachelorette, I figured it was time to start watching Bachelor in Paradise as well. Instead of doing appetizers for this I wanted to do strictly desserts. I really have no idea what I am getting myself into with this show so here goes nothing haha

This gluten free cookie was so simple to make and you can’t even tell that it is gf! You could easily sub gf flour for normal flour if you don’t need food to be gf. It was easy to make into a big pizza like this but another option would be individual frosted cookies and bringing a fruit tray and they can add which fruits they would like!

I love that this is the base of a great gluten free cookie that can be used for a fruit pizza but it can also be used as a great roll out sugar cookie recipe used around Christmas time!
