GF/DF Chocolate Chip cookies

I posted this on Celiac.com a bit ago, but just got around to posting this here.  It’s actually a recipe from my Better Homes and Gardens cookbook, with a verification with Nestle’s Tollhouse cookies.  They worked out really well.  I might try refrigerating the dough for about an hour just to see if I get even better results.  The first batch I did were just like I remember homemade chocolate chip cookies.  The second batch were very flat and ran.  They were almost crepe like, but I honestly think I forgot to add the rest of the flour in.  But at any rate, here’s the recipe:



2 1/4 cups gluten-free flour (add more if the dough is a bit runny)

1 Tbsp baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

1 cup (2 sticks, 1/2 pound) butter, softened (I used dairy-free Fleischmanns, as it’s all corn oil)

3/4 cup granulated [white] sugar

3/4 cup packed brown sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 eggs (or egg replacement) (room temperature)


2 cups (12-ounce package) Semi-Sweet Chocolate Morsels, or any dairy free morsels (I used Ghirardelli’s bittersweet and they were fantastic.)

1 cup chopped nuts (OPTIONAL!!)





COMBINE flour, baking soda and salt in small bowl. Beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla in large mixer bowl. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition; gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in morsels and nuts if you are using them. Drop by rounded teaspoon onto ungreased baking sheets.



BAKE in preheated 375-degree [Fahrenheit] oven for 9 to 11 minutes or until golden brown. Let stand for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.
