    1/3 cup butter (or gluten-free margarine), softened
    ¾ cup sugar
    1 cup brown sugar
    1 tablespoon vanilla
    1 cup real peanut butter (process unsalted peanuts in
    food processor)
    1 large egg
    12 oz. gluten-free semi sweet chocolate chips
    2 tablespoons gluten-free cocoa

    Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

    Sift Rice flour into a mixing bowl and add baking soda, baking powder and salt. Set aside.

    In a large bowl, beat together butter and sugars until light and fluffy, then add peanut butter, vanilla and cocoa. Add eggs and beat well, gradually adding flour mix. Add choc chips last.

    When I tried to make the Paula's cookies, the dough was dry something is missing in it. I had to make them into balls and not like a cookie. I love to bake and now I have to use the rice flour. I'd like to know if it makes a difference?

    Because of my fiancé I've started trying to find recipes for gluten-free and yeast-free items (that are tasty). I ended up finding this recipe and modifying it. I didn't want the proposed "60 cookies" so I halved everything in the recipe (except for the egg of course). Ended up making 14-15 large spoonful size cookies and only cooking them 13-15 minutes so that they were still soft coming out of the oven (Do not overcook - trust me). I have made these multiple times and always get an "Amazing! These are gluten-FREE?"

    I did not change anything- I made it exactly as the recipe says. And it was great! It is hard to find tasty gluten-free recipes, especially when it comes to desserts. The only problem I had when making this was while beating the dough- it was very moist but very crumbly. So there were tiny pieces flying out of the bowl and going everywhere!

      Get tested for vitamin deficiencies. Though neuropathy can be a symptom of celiac, it can also be caused by deficiencies due to poor digestion caused by celiac and could be easier to treat.

      We feel your pain. It took me 20+ years of regularly going to doctors desperate for answers only to be told there was nothing wrong with me … when I was 20 pounds underweight, suffering from severe nutritional deficiencies, and in a great deal of pain. I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does m...

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much...
