These easy no bake gluten free cookies are the perfect combination of chocolate, peanut butter, and GF oats to make one fantastic cookie!

Everything you need to know to host a great bake sale!

Gluten Free No Bake Cookies

There are a lot of ways to raise money but my personal favorite is a bake sale. I love spending time in my kitchen creating lots of delicious goodies and why not put all of those goodies to good use? I have compiled some of the things from many many bake sales and included some of my favorite recipes below that always do so well at a sale!

Tips for a Bake Sale

  1. Location! Find a great high traffic area! What about a high traffic street corner or maybe at a local park.
  2. Recruit Help. Let people know about Ronald McDonald House Charities and why you want to help! Recruit people in your schools, church and neighborhood to bake cookies, cakes and other items for the sale!
  3. Label everything with a price. It may help to have a standard pricing system such as items that are $1, $3, $5 and $10.
  4. Have everything ready to sell. Make sure every cake or plate of cookies is packaged in a way that is easy to sell. This also takes care of some of the sanitation issues of having food out.
  5. Have small items like individual cookies ready to sell for those who want to buy something small.
  6. Think of larger items like whole cakes too! These can be sold for more money.

    A friend of mine has to be gluten-free and she’s always looking for desserts she can enjoy. I’m definitely going to share this post with her because they all look good to me.

    Always looking for great and different cookies to make and enjoy. In our state we can’t do bake sales anymore. Food and regulations won’t allow it anymore. Sad!

    The cookies and cakes looks really delicious. It’s really important to have a high traffic area for a bake sale. It also help to have low valued items which you can add on to some items to entice buyers,

    Oh yum, I love making these. They’re so easy and delicious. I tend to send in store bought stuff for bake sales.

    I love the Ronald McDonald house too! My family stayed in one when my daughter was in the hospital for a few days.

    My mom used to make no-bake cookies like this (with regular oats) a lot when I was younger. They are so good and easy. It’s great that you can make them gluten free to enjoy!

    Everything looks divine! I will try the no bake cookies. The oatmeal will give me a good amount of dietary fiber! Thanks for the tips on how to have a successful bake sale. I will share this article with my sister. I know she and her mommy friends organize a bake sale often.

    RMDH is a great organization, a friend of mine had been hoping to stay there while her son was hospitalized for a few months but they were full. It is sort of ironic that your favorite cookie for a bake sale is a no-bake cookie.

    Hosting a bake sale and donating the profits to a place like the Ronald McDonald house is an amazing idea! I love no bake cookies, but I have never had some that are gluten free. That is a great idea when trying to appeal to a lot of people, then more people can buy the cookies!
