March 20, 2023

I am so excited about DEUX. It’s the BEST vegan and gluten-free cookie dough on the planet. Order it today at eatdeux.com and save 10% on your order by using code “greersoc.” They've taken out all of the bad stuff and added in good-for-you, functional ingredients that feel as good as they taste. Their recipes such as Chocolate Chip, Space Brownie, Matcha Cookie Dough, Peanut Butter, and Cookie Butter Spread are vegan & gluten-free so you can eat them raw or bake them into warm, gooey cookies (if they even last that long).
