Shoot the dough out of a cookie press or roll it into a log, freeze, slice and bake—either way, this recipe makes a very versatile dough.

Mochi Garlic Roll Puffs

Satisfy that craving for garlic rolls with these gluten-free garlic "bread" puffs. Ready in 15 minutes or less!The other day my husband and I were reminiscing about our "married without kids" days in Dallas, Texas. We had bought a fixer-upper in one of those neighborhoods surrounding White Rock Lake. We got a dog. We regularly went to the gym (he still does, I fake it). We ate out ... a lot!

One of the places we'd frequent was Alfonso's Italian Restaurant there on the East side of the lake. Their garlic rolls were the bomb! Gut bombs, but still THE bomb.

Low-Sugar & Sugar-Free Chocolate Recipe

I am no chocolatier. I am no pastry chef. I am just a mom who spends a lot of the time in the kitchen experimenting and playing. I'm also a mom who is learning to let go of [some] of her perfectionist ways and say "that's good enough."

And so it was with this attempt at chocolate making. I did some reading up on it; how to temper it, all the technique involved. Bah, too many steps, too complicated."Let's just go melt some cocoa butter, throw in some cocoa powder and some sweetener and run with it," I thought.
