    Marshmallow Caramel Halloween Puffs (Gluten-Free)

    Reviewed and edited by a celiac disease expert.

    Celiac.com 11/05/2013 - Halloween is over, and this year we offered a fun alternative to the standard store-bought fare--marshmallow caramel puffs.

    Photo: CC--FurryscalyThey are fun and easy to make, and kids just love to help make them, and, of course, to eat them. They turned out great, so I thought I'd share them here for next year.

    This recipe makes a dozen marshmallows, but it's easy to scale accordingly.

    Ingredients:
    1 dozen regular marshmallows
    1 dozen Kraft caramels
    ¾ cup almonds, crushed
    6 ounces melted dark chocolate

    Directions:
    Place crushed almonds into a bowl.

    Melt caramels in a double-boiler.

    Dip marshmallows halfway into the melted caramel.

    Remove, and let the excess drip off, then dip in crushed almonds.

    Place on a lightly oiled parchment-lined baking sheet until set.

    Drizzle white tops with melted chocolate.

    Allow to cool and serve.

    Note: Any marshmallows made by the Kraft, or Doumak companies are gluten-free. This includes Jet Puffed, Campfire, WalMart, and CVS brand marshmallows.

    Kraft caramels are also gluten-free.

    This is one of my favorite desserts to make; it’s so fun to cook and serve. The sauce becomes incredibly aromatic as it cooks down. As simple, yet exotic desserts go, it’s a perfect way to top off a meal with flair. I usually poach peaches or pears in wine, but the rosemary in this recipe does something magical with the peach, I didn’t want to hide it behind the wine.
    Ingredients:
    2 pounds firm, ripe peaches
    ½ cup sugar
    ¼ cup water
    2 tablespoons honey
    2 strips lemon rind
    2 tablespoon lemon juice
    2 sprigs fresh rosemary
    Directions:
    Cut unpeeled peaches into 1-inch slices and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice.
    In a large saucepan, heat sugar, water, honey and remaining lemon juice over low-medium heat. Simmer until sugar dissolves completely. Add ro...

      Hey all!

      Thank you! I’m currently the breadwinner as my husband is pursuing a finance degree so the nights that I am at work they can eat whatever my husband makes but when I am home we have gluten free meals and no complaints so far! I definitely don’t have a choice but to switch but I think slowly transitioning my family is good!😀

      Hey all!

      Welcome aboard, @Savannah Wert! There usually is a learning curve involved in arriving at a consistently gluten free diet since gluten is found in so many food products where you would never expect it to be. This article may be helpful: It is good that you have identified some other foods that you cannot tolerate at this point as this is so common...

      Refractory or super sensitive?

      I don't react the same way to all of them but do react badly to many of them where others may not. I also have a touch of hypochondria so when the labs come back too high or makes me anxious. I am dismayed but not really surprised that I may be in the small group of people to suffer a particular side effect. I was originally on warfirin. I think that was...

      Refractory or super sensitive?

      What do you mean when you say, "blood thinners are all the same to me"? Do you mean you react negatively in the same way to all of them? Otherwise, they are not all the same. They work in different ways. Aspirin causes the platelets to be less sticky. Warfarin and related meds work by reducing the production of platelets. You might talk to your doctor about...
