Soft Chewy Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookies Food

SOFT AND CHEWY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F with racks in the upper and lower third positions. In a small bowl, whisk together flour and baking soda; set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter and both sugars on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add salt, vanilla, and eggs; mix to combine. Reduce speed to low and gradually add flour mixture, mixing until just combined. Mix in chocolate chips.
• Using a tablespoon measure, drop heaping portions of dough about 2 inches apart on baking sheets lined with parchment paper.
• Bake until cookies are golden around the edges, but still soft in the center, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from oven, and let cool on baking sheet 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer cookies to a wire rack and let cool completely. Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature up to 1 week.

CHEWY GLUTEN-FREE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 F degrees.
• Blend butter, sugars, egg and vanilla with a wooden spoon until creamy.
• In a separate bowl, blend flours, baking soda, almond meal and salt.
• Fold dry ingredients into wet ingredients and mix well.
• Grease a baking sheet.
• Drop a tablespoon of the batter at a time onto the cookie sheet, leaving ample room between cookies.
• Bake for 10 minutes.
• Remove from oven and allow to sit for 5 minutes before transferring carefully to cooling rack.

GLUTEN FREE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350ËšF and prepare a cookie sheet with parchment or a silpat liner.
• Cream the butter with the white and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
• Add the egg and the vanilla and mix until evenly distributed.
• Mix together all the flours, the xanthan gum, and the salt with a whisk. Add them gradually to the mixer allowing them to incorporate after each addition.
• Add a tsp of hot water to dissolve the baking soda and add it to the mixer. Use a spatula to make sure you get it all out.
• Add the chocolate chips and the chopped chocolate and mix until well combined.
• I use an ice cream scoop to measure my cookies so they're uniform. With the scoop I use I get about 18 cookies from this recipe. I find this to be the perfect amount for a quick craving.
• Bake for 10 minutes, then rotate, and bake for 4 more minutes. Gluten Free tends not to brown up that much. The first few times I overbaked them. Once they've gotten that perfect regular golden brown, for gluten free that probably means they'll be a little crisp. So er on the side of 2 minutes less than the degree of brown you'd like to see for that perfect soft, chewy center. And remember all ovens vary, so you'll find the perfect time for your oven with practice.
• When done, allow to sit for a few minutes then move to a cooling rack to finish cooling.

SOFT & CHEWY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.Grease a cookie sheet (I use canola oil pan spray).
• Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. Stir lightly.
• In a separate, larger mixing bowl, cream the shortening, brown sugar and white sugar thoroughly. Crack in eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add vanilla, mixing well to combine.
• Begin adding the dry mixture to the shortening mixture. Add about 1/4 or 1/3 of the dry mixture at a time, thoroughly blending each addition of flour into the shortening before adding the next.
• If you like a hint of cinnamon in your cookies, add 1/2 teaspoon now (I think its an excellent addition: not so much that anyone notices the cinnamon taste, but it gives the cookies a little more flavor). Stir in the cinnamon.
• Add the chocolate chips and mix into the dough until they are evenly distributed.
• Spoon golf-ball sized mounds of dough onto the baking sheet: I make 12 per tray.
• Bake in the 375 oven for about 10 minutes. Just in case, I would check them once after 8 minutes, and allow them up to 12.
• Remove from the oven when the cookie centers are just set but still soft, and the edges are just browning. Cool on the tray for about 5 minutes, them remove to a cooling rack if you have one, otherwise a plate will be fine.
• Just don't stack them on top of one another while they are still soft!
• Enjoy!
