Ingredients

  • 200 grams of 70% Dark Chocolate
  • 50 grams of White Rice Flour
  • 30 grams of Tapioca Flour
  • 20 grams of Brown Rice Flour
  • ¼ teaspoon of Xanthan Gum
  • 20 grams of Cocoa Powder
  • 1 ½ teaspoon of Baking Powder
  • ½ teaspoon of Salt
  • 80 grams of Unsalted Butter at Room Temperature
  • 100 grams of Light / Dark Brown Sugar
  • 100 grams of Granulated White Sugar
  • 2 Large Eggs
  • 1 teaspoon of Vanilla Extract
  • 150 grams of Semi-Sweet Gluten-Free Chocolate Chips

Instructions

  • Add the dark chocolate to a microwave-safe bowl and melt the chocolate using a microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval until the chocolate is completely melted and no lumps remain. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the chocolate slightly cool.
  • Meanwhile, add the white rice flour, tapioca flour, brown rice flour, xanthan gum, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt to a bowl and whisk together until combined.
  • Then, in a separate bowl, add the unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar and beat, at medium-high speed, using a handheld mixer or standalone mixer fitted with the paddle attached until light and fluffy (2-3 minutes). Next, add the eggs and vanilla extract and beat until creamy (1-2 minutes). Now pour the melted chocolate and beat until combined (1-2 minutes).
  • Afterward, add the flour mixture and beat until combined (1-2 minutes). Then add the chocolate chips and mix them into the cookie dough using a spatula.
  • Transfer the cookie dough to the fridge and let it chill for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 180°C (356°F) while the cookie dough chills.
  • Roll a 1 ½ tablespoon of cookie dough into a ball and place each ball on a baking tray aligned with parchment paper at least 6 cm (~2.5 inches) apart. Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are set.
  • Allow the cookies to cool on the baking tray for 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.

Notes

  • Storage and Freezing: The gluten free chocolate cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for five days. They can also be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week. To freeze the cookies, wrap each cookie with plastic wrap and freeze it for up to 2 months.
  • Tips: Make sure to chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking the cookies. This will prevent the cookies from over-spreading. If you are chilling the dough for longer than 30 minutes, let it sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes before baking.
