Aren’t they just the best? These delicious cookies are not only mouth watering but they solve one big problem that those gluten free-ers will understand. Grabbing something quick from the bakery to eat in town is not always an easy task, trust me I’ve been there. But with this recipe, hopefully life will be made a little easier.

They’re crispy on the outside and soft and chewy in the middle. The perfect cookie right? I would definitely recommend chilling the dough to get the right consistency so they don’t spread into one big cookie.

Step by step instructions are below and as always a print button if you prefer the paper way!

If you enjoy my recipe how about trying my White Chocolate and Macadamia Cookies? My favourite cookie flavour!

Shopping List:

So here’s what you’ll need:

• 150g softened butter
• 80g soft brown sugar
• 70g golden caster sugar
• 1 medium egg
• 1 tsp vanilla paste or extract
• 200g gluten free plain flour
• 1/4 tsp xantham gum – only add if your gluten free flour doesn’t already contain it
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 100-150g chocolate chips

So for the flour, I use Doves Farm FREEE plain flour from their gluten free range. If you prefer you can substitute for another type of gluten free plain flour.

For the baking powder and chocolate chips, make sure both are gluten free if you need them to be. I use Molly’s chocolate and chop it up for the chocolate chips. It’s very cheap but delicious too!

Can I make these dairy free?

Yes you can of course make these dairy free. Just substitute the below!

• Butter – swap for a dairy free block of margarine such as Stork
• Chocolate chips- Use dairy free chocolate chips or a dairy free chocolate bar chopped up

On with the recipe then!
