Awesome Chocolate Chip Cookies... Mmmm Still Warm!

[missquarejane]

today i made cocolate chip cookies for the kids for the first time since diagnosis. these turned out so well i defy anyone to tell them apart. i experimented with the flour and here's what i used:

-1 cup salted gluten-free margarine

-1 1/2 cup granulated sugar (recipe called for one cup granulated, 1/2 cup brown but we were out of brown sugar)

-2 eggs

-2 tsp vanilla (gluten-free of course) recipe called for 1 tsp but we like our vanilla.

-2/3 cup glutinous rice flour

-1 1/3 cup Bob's Red Mill gluten-free flour (largely garbanzo and sorhgum flour)

-2 tbsp corn flour for texture.

-1/2 tsp xanthan gum

*you could use 1 1/2 cup rice flour and 1/2 cup potato flour instead*

-1 tsp baking soda

-1 pk gluten-free chocolate chips. (chipits semi-sweet are gluten-free)

-1/2 cup almonds or walnuts if desired.

cream together sugar, eggs, margarine and vanilla. then add all dry ingredients except the chocolate chips (and nuts if you want) and blend for 1 min.

add choc chips (and nuts if desired) and stir

spoon onto cookie sheet and bake in pre-heated oven at 350 deg for 12 to 15 mins depending on your oven. remove when cookies are lightly golden around edges and still gooey in center. let cool 2 mins and remove from cookie sheet.

soooooo good!
