Gluten-free Chocolate Chip
Cookies
Ingredients for 1 whole cake
- 12 TBS unsalted butter, room temp.*
- 1 1/3 cups organic light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 1/4 cup sprouted rice flour
- 1 cup quinoa flour
- 1 tsp baking soda**
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
* I think that good quality
butter makes the difference between a "passable" cookie and an "awesome" cookie.
That is why I recommend you use only organic sweet-cream
butter.
Preparation
Preheat oven to 375 F with rack in center.
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. If using dark colored sheets, set
oven to 350.
In the bowl of your electric mixer (or with a hand mixer),
cream the butter. Add the brown sugar and beat until aerated and fluffy (no more
than 2 minutes). Beat in eggs, one at a time. Add the vanilla and beat until
incorporated.
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and
salt. Add the dry to the wet and with a wooden spoon beat until incorporated,
adding the chocolate chips half way through mixing.
Using a small
ice-cream scoop or two spoons, drop a rounded tsp of dough onto the prepared
baking sheets. Bake about 11 minutes or until browned around the edges and
center is still soft. For a larger cookie, use a large ice-cream scoop or two
large spoons, and bake for about 16 minutes.
Cool completely on a wire
rack.
Makes about 4 dozen - 3 inch cookies.
