Here's how to whip up a batch of these delectable treats:
Ingredients:
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vinegar
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 2 1/4 cups Gluten-Free Flour
- 2 to 2 2/3 cups chocolate chips (or your preferred mix-ins)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and lightly grease or line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, honey, vanilla extract, salt, baking soda, and baking powder until smooth and creamy.
- Beat in the vinegar, egg, and milk until well combined.
- Gradually add the gluten-free flour to the mixture, stirring until fully incorporated.
- Fold in the chocolate chips or your chosen mix-ins until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Using a tablespoon cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them apart to allow for spreading.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 14 minutes (or 9 to 11 minutes for smaller cookies), until the edges are lightly golden and the bottoms are just starting to brown.
- Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, indulge in the irresistible goodness of your freshly baked gluten-free chocolate chip cookies.
Storage Tips:
- Store your cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for several days to maintain their softness.
- For longer storage, wrap the cookies tightly in plastic wrap and freeze.
Baker's Insights:
- Wondering about the vinegar? A touch of vinegar in the dough helps balance the sweetness of the sugars and chocolate, while also lending a lightness to the cookies.
- Adjust the amount of chocolate chips based on your preference – more for a chocolate-packed experience, or fewer if you prefer other flavors to shine.
