This Rocking Recipe for Gluten-Free Vegan Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies Paired with Sutter Home Chardonnay is Music to The Mouth

Singer-Songwriters Maggie McClure and Shane Henry don’t just create hit songs together they create hit recipes, too. According to Shane, both he and Maggie came to know each other through music, “without music, this never would have happened.” 12 years later, countless shows and wedding bells, the couple has traveled across the country, swapping Los Angeles for Oklahoma on a regular basis as they look to take their music career to the next level together.

“When we’re on stage, we look at each other and we know where the other one is going musically. I realize a lot of other people don’t get to experience that kind of connection.” Henry loves when his wife belts out powerful notes in songs full of lyrics straight from the soul.

Their melodic Gluten-Free & Vegan Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Holiday Cookies are good for your soul too. They’ll surely lift your holiday spirits because their ridiculously delicious and delectably good for you. Fresh-out-of-the-oven, they make a great duet with our Chardonnay’s rich and creamy fruity flair and its notes of pear, apple, and peach.

We like to think that Maggie and Shane’s homemade Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies and Sutter Home Chardonnay create perfect holiday harmonies together, just like when Maggie and Shane sing and perform together. If you missed them performing their very merry holiday hit song, “Christmastime Again” in our Vibe & Vine studio in Napa Valley you can watch it right here: Vibe & Vine: Maggie McClure & Shane Henry – “Christmastime Again”.
