The Best Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

We have made a lot of gluten free cookies over the last eleven years and these are the best that we have made. 

I rarely use the word best in my recipes. I am one of those people that is always looking for a better version of a cake, cookie, casserole, etc.

I love to change up recipes to see how I can make them better. So when I say it is the best we have tried, it really is the best that we have tried.

Can I use a gluten free flour blend in gluten free chocolate chips cookies?

Technically yes you can use a gluten free flour blend. For the best results though use the individual gluten free flours. 

Blends work fine in many recipes, but for desserts like cakes and cookies, I almost always find that the individual flours give you the best results.

A blend is kind of like a one size fits all. And one size doesn’t always fit all. When you use the individual flours you get the exact ratio for the recipe. 

What makes the best gluten free chocolate chip cookies? 

Lots of chocolate. Lots of butter. And individual gluten free flours instead of a blend. 

I have made a lot of gluten free cookies over the years and these really are the best!
