Ingredients

  • 1 cup dairy-free butter substitute softened or shortening
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp gluten-free vanilla
  • 2 eggs or egg substitute
  • 1 cup brown or white rice flour
  • 1 cup garbanzo bean flour my secret weapon for chewy cookies
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp Xanthan gum or Guar gum
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips I used allergy-friendly
  • 1/2 cup walnuts finely chopped ~ omit for nut-free

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl cream butter (or substitute) and sugars.
  • Add vanilla and eggs (or egg substitute) mix well.
  • Add dry ingredients, mix well.
  • Stir in chocolate chips and nuts.
  • Place dough with scoop onto the lined cookie sheet. Leave a little space between each cookie and gently press down a little to flatten. Since they cook at a lower temp. they take a little longer to bake. Oh, but they are worth the wait!!
  • Bake for 15-17 minutes (depending on size)
  • Remove from oven and let sit for a couple of minutes, this allows cookies to set.
  • Transfer to wire rack. Cool completely.

Notes

**
Please note:
I use a cookie scoop to make all my cookies, it’s so much easier that way. But first, line your cookie sheet with parchment paper. This really makes a better gluten-free cookie from my experience.

I like to make my cookies into an ice cream sandwich. This works great with SoDelicious, a dairy-free ice cream.
And I freeze them like everything else I make.
