Equipment

  • mixing bowl
  • cookie scoop
  • Oven
  • parchment paper

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened For dairy-free use Smart Balance butter, or vegan butter.
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 teaspoon molasses
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg For egg-free/vegan use Bob's Red Mill Gluten-Free Egg Replacer.
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon gluten-free baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose gluten-free flour with xanthan gum I like Pillsbury gluten-free flour. Not all gluten-free flours are created equal.
  • 2 cups chocolate chips For dairy-free/vegan use Nestle Simply Delicious or Enjoy Life mini chocolate chips.

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • In a large bowl beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until creamy.
  • Add the egg (or egg replacer), molasses, and pure vanilla extract to the butter mixture and mix until fully combined.
  • Add the gluten-free flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt to the butter mixture and mix until fully combined.
  • Either stir in the chocolate chips with a spoon or use your mixer on low to mix the chocolate chips into the cookie batter.
  • Drop by rounded tablespoon or use a greased cookie scoop. Place the cookies 2 inches apart on a parchment-lined cookie sheet.
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes until they start to turn golden brown (the centers of the cookies will be soft).
  • Cool and store leftovers in an air-tight container. Enjoy!

Notes

My preferred gluten-free flour is Pillsbury gluten-free flour. Not all gluten-free flours are created equal. Measure flour using the ''spoon & level'' method. Store leftovers in an air-tight container for up to a week. The cookie dough can be frozen for up to 3 months.
