Gluten-Free Chocolate/Peanut Butter Chip Cookies
Happy Thursday everyone!
I hope you are enjoying this short week. Little A and I are visiting some family this week and are enjoying the change in scenery very much.
Today I am excited to share with you an awesome recipe for chocolate chip cookies (that I of course add peanut butter chips to – hence the Chocolate/Peanut Butter Chip Cookie name). There are a few awesome things about this recipe, the first being that it is easily made gluten-free and tastes awesome! I have been gluten-free for about 8 years now and I am always on the lookout for really good gluten-free recipes - especially ones for sweet stuff! Over the years I have tried a TON of different gluten-free flours and products and have been disappointed one too many times with the way my recipes come out. In my opinion some gluten-free all-purpose products just don’t adapt well into regular recipes.
However, I recently tried this Better Batter Gluten-Free all-purpose flour and I am in love.
For me it is the best gluten-free all-purpose flour on the market. The box says it can be used as a cup for cup equivalent for regular flour and I have found that to be the case in a few receipes I have tried. It really rocks! I purchase mine through glutenfreely.com but I am sure it is available at other places as well.
So back to an awesome recipe using this flour.
Gluten-Free Chocolate/Peanut Butter Chip Cookies
Adapted from this recipe from Chocolate Covered Katie (an awesome website)
(Recipe makes about 8-10 cookies – depending how much dough you snack on 
)
- 1/3 c. plus 1/4 c. better batter all-purpose gluten-free flour
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1/4 t. baking soda
- 2 T. chocolate chips, 2 T. peanut butter chips
- 2 T. brown sugar
- 2 T. white sugar
- 1/2 t. vanilla extract
- 1 T. vegetable
- 3 T. vanilla soy milk
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Mix your dry ingredients first, then add your wet ingredients. Mix well and then add the chocolate/peanut butter chips. Form into balls and bake for 7-8 minutes.
Another awesome thing about this recipe is that it only makes 8-10 cookies. Sometimes I am in the mood for cookies but don’t want to make a million cookies. This receip is just enough to have a few sweet treats around for a day or so (instead of several).
I am sure this recipe is great with regular flour as well but I obviously cannot speak to that.
Hope you enjoy the cookies as much as I do.
Oh, and if you are interested in checking out another awesome gluten-free cookie recipe (that also includes peanut butter and chocolate), be sure to try these flourless peanut butter cookies. They are equally as good.
