Contest rules

• After entering one or more gluten free cookie recipes, ask friends, family and co-workers to vote by liking your recipe on Facebook or by re-pinning/liking it on Pinterest. Winners are determined by the number of likes and re-pins.
• Do not post the same recipe more than once.
• Only photos submitted between November 25 and December 31, 2016 were eligible for the 2016 contest.
• The contest closed December 31, 2016 at 11:59pm. The top 10 recipes with the most combined likes and re-pins were selected for a blind Bake-Off. Those finalists were asked to send two dozen cookies baked exactly to their submitted recipe using certified gluten-free flours for judging. The top three ranked cookies received the grand prizes.

Note: All recipes must be gluten free and made using Certified Gluten Free flours. For details on certification seals and identifying products certified by independent agencies, see the organizer’s article on shopping for safe gluten free products.
