Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar (packed)
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt to combine. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream the softened unsalted butter with granulated sugar and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the large egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture. Beat until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture into the wet mixture, beating on low speed until fully incorporated.
Fold in the dark chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon.
Scoop tablespoons of dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie to allow spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes or until the cookies have set edges and soft centers.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy the gluten-free dark chocolate cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage.
