Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookies

These gluten-free cookies are perfect, and taste just like the real thing! I’ve had a hard time coming across a gluten-free cookie that doesn’t taste like crunchy cardboard – dry and flavourless. Well these are just the opposite. They are soft, chewy and moist- but not in a greasy way – and no one even knew they were gluten-free. They are easy to make and take just a little bit of extra patience measuring out the flour – as there are a few types in this recipe. Otherwise a pretty fool-proof recipe! Although the sprinkled sea salt is optional, I would highly suggest it. It makes these cookies taste just a little bit sweeter. If you’ve been on the search for a good gluten-free cookie recipe, this is it! Give this recipe a try today – be sure to have a tall glass of milk ready!

  1. Being strictly gluten free, it is really hard to find baked good that aren’t heavy and tasteless. These cookies are Ah-mazing! They were moist, chocolatey and the sea-salt just adds that little extra something! Gluten-free can be good and these cookies prove that!
