When it comes to gluten-free baking, it can be hard to find recipes to make that are equally as delicious as their original counterparts; but this recipe does just that.
The major downside to gluten-free baking is the expensive list of flour alternatives that are usually required in most recipes. That’s what makes these cookies so unique; they can be made using ingredients that you probably already have ready to go in your fridge and pantry.
If you are choc chip cookie lover (who isn’t) then this recipe is definitely worth a try. Filled with your delicious chocolate of choice – milk, dark or white (or all 3), and smooth peanut butter, this is a creamy, chocolatey cookie, best served warm with a big scoop of ice cream.
Celiac’s rejoice!
