There’s something about a layered dessert that just feels a little extra—in the best way. Like you didn’t just make dessert… you constructed it. This Gluten-Free Spumoni Lush is exactly that kind of treat. It’s colorful, a little nostalgic, and honestly, kind of a show-off (but we love her for it).

If you grew up loving spumoni ice cream, this feels like a richer, more elevated twist on a classic favorite. It’s just as nostalgic, but a little more refined—and no one will even realize it’s gluten-free!

There are desserts that are good… and then there are desserts that feel a little bit dangerous. The kind where you take one bite and immediately think, “Oh no. I might eat three of these.” These Gluten-Free Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cupcakes absolutely fall into the second category.

They start with a soft brown sugar cupcake that’s rich, buttery, and already hinting at that classic chocolate chip cookie flavor. But that’s just the beginning. Each cupcake is filled with a scoop of edible cookie dough, topped with a thick swirl of cookie dough frosting, and finished with a mini chocolate chip cookie and a sprinkle of mini chocolate chips.

In other words, if you’ve ever thought the best part of baking cookies was sneaking bites of the dough, these cupcakes were basically made for you. They’re fun, a little over-the-top, and packed with that nostalgic cookie dough flavor in every single layer. 🍪🍪🍪
