Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Try adding gluten free candy-coated chocolate candies or gluten free candy-coated peanut butter candies for added chocolate and peanut butter flavor instead of the peanut butter cups.
  • tip 2
    Always read label to make sure each recipe ingredient is gluten free. Products and ingredient sources can change.
