Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookies
While they may not be quite as authentic as their gluten filled relations, these chocolate chip cookies still passed the kid taste test at our house! Enjoy!
- 1 cup + 2 Tbsp unsalted butter, extremely soft
- 1 1/4 cups sorghum flour
- 3/4 cup cornstarch
- 3/4 cup potato starch
- 2 tsp xanthan gum
- 2/3 tsp fine sea salt
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 cup + 2 Tbsp dark brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2 egg yolks
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 10 oz semisweet chocolate chips
Mix together dry ingredients in a medium sized bowl and set aside. In mixer, add the butter and brown sugar and mix for about 1 minute, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed. Add egg, yolks and vanilla and cream an additional minute. Slowly add in the flour blend and mix well. Place the dough in the freezer for 10 minutes. Using a spoon, stir, then freeze and additional 10 minutes or until firm (I left them about 20 min. more). Scoop 2 1/2 Tbsp for each cookie, roll into ball, place on ungreased cookie sheet and flatten with the palm of your hand. Bake for 14 minutes at 350 F degrees or until bottom edges are brown. (If you desire chewy cookies, try adding a little more sugar and butter.)
