In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until fluffy and well combined, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, beating well until fully incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
If desired, fold in the mini chocolate chips using a spatula.
Preheat a waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions and lightly grease the surface with non-stick cooking spray.
Scoop about 1-2 tablespoons of the cookie dough and place it onto the center of the preheated waffle iron. Close the iron and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the cookie is golden brown and lifts away easily. Cooking time may vary depending on your waffle iron, so keep an eye on it to avoid overcooking.
Carefully remove the waffle cookie and transfer it to a cooling rack. Repeat with the remaining dough, lightly greasing the waffle iron as needed between batches.
Allow the waffle cookies to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them on their own or with a drizzle of melted chocolate or powdered sugar for extra sweetness.
