Description
Delicious gluten-free chocolate chip cookies loaded with chocolate buttons and chips.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 3/4 cups gluten free flour (* See notes)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 7 tablespoons butter (softened to room temperature)
- 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1/4 cup white sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 large egg yolk
- 1/2 cup chocolate buttons (M & M’s or similar)
- 1/4 cup chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer to cream the butter and sugars together until fluffy. Mix in the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract until combined.
- Using a wooden spoon, gently mix through the dry ingredients, then fold in the candy buttons and chocolate chips.
- Cover the mixing bowl and refrigerate for an hour.
- Preheat the oven to 180C/350F. Line two large cookie sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
- Using a cookie scoop, scoop out 12-16 portions of cookie dough. Place them on the two cookie sheets, leaving 1-2 inches apart so the cookies can spread.
- Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just done. Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool completely.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, consider adding vanilla extract to the butter and sugar mixture.
- Make sure to use gluten free certified flour for the best results.
