Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1¾ cups EGFG gluten free flour blend* (225 g)
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¾ teaspoon xanthan gum
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup butter, melted
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • ⅓ cup sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoon milk
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla
  • 1¼ cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  • In medium bowl whisk together flour blend, baking soda, xanthan gum and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl mix melted butter and both sugars until combined.
  • Add egg, milk and vanilla stirring until smooth.
  • Using a stand mixer add flour to butter/sugar and mix until soft.
  • Add chocolate chips, mix until evenly combined.
  • Cover cookie dough and let rest for 30 minutes. Or make dough balls using a portion scoop. Cookie dough balls can be frozen at this point.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Place cookies on baking sheet at least 2 inches apart. Bake for 11-13 minutes until golden brown and the edges are set.
  • Place baking pan on a wire rack for 2-3 minutes then transfer cookies to the wire rack and cool completely.
  • Store in air tight container for maximum freshness.

Notes

*EGFG gluten free flour blend: 300g sweet rice flour, 300g potato starch, 200g sorghum flour, 200g millet flour (makes ~8 cups)
Resting Time: Some cookie recipes include a resting time which helps the gluten free flours and starches absorb the fat and liquid more fully. This is a guide and will vary depending on the specific flour blend you use. 
Experibaking: I make this recipe for Chocolate Chip Cookies with my EGFG gluten free flour blend and I experiment by substituting some of the flour (about ½ cup) with different flours I have in my cupboard.
