Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour blend ensure it contains xanthan gum
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
  • 3/4 cup unsalted butter melted and slightly cooled
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
Mix-ins
  • 1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Method
 

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Beat with a mixer until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add eggs and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, beating until fully incorporated.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  6. Cover the dough and chill for 30 minutes to help the cookies hold their shape while baking.
  7. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  8. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  9. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look slightly underbaked.
  10. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For best results, measure your flour using the spoon-and-level method. To make these cookies dairy-free, use vegan butter and dairy-free chocolate chips.
