Chocolate chip cookies, galore!

I made 3 1/2 dozen yesterday...and they actually turned out good! My husband licked the batter and ate almost a dozen throughout the day :P They were fairly moist (although, as with most cookies, one batch came out a little over brown and crunchy...but still tasty). I just had to share that something turned out good on my very first attempt! (which as we all know, isn't that easy to do when trying to go gluten-free) ;)

I'll be glad to post the ingredients if anyone is interested (although, I'm at work at the moment.

Have a blessed day everyone! -Julie :)

I'd love to have the recipe, they sound great.

Does anyone else know of a gluten-free Shortbread cookie recipe?

Thanks!

Hi Dana,

I just got home; I'll be happy to post the recipe:

gluten-free-Chocolate Chip Cookies:

3/4 C sugar

3/4 C brown sugar (firmly packed)

1 C butter or margarine

1 egg

mix together; then add:

2 1/4 C Gluten-free Flour Mix (sifted)

1 tsp. xan. gum

1 tsp. unflavored gelatin

12 oz. chocolate chips

Bake @ 350 for 10-14 minutes :P

Tips I found helpful:

Let the oven preheat well

I used gluten-free/CF chocolate chips; although that was a personal thing-not necessary

I used 1/2 Spectrum (tra?) gluten-free/CF margerine and 1/2 regular butter

I made sure to pack the brown sugar and sift the flour mix well (I used Bob's R.M.)

The recipe made 3 1/2-4 dozen "average" cookies or it can make 6 dozen ity-bity cookies ;)

Enjoy! -Julie

celiac3270,

Is the mix expensive? The only reason that I made my own is because I can make 12 dozen for the price of 2 dozen sent by Ener-G...and surprisingly enough, mine tasted better! :P But I've never tried the Arrowhead Mills brand though, I like some of their cereals....I'm always looking for "quick fix" junk food too! Thank you for the suggestion. I don't always have time to cook, but really, it didn't take but about 45 minutes to make all of those cookies this weekend...not to bad ;)

I have two boxes in the cabinet -- one cost $3.59, the other, $3.69. They make a nice amount of cookies, too. I have LOVED everything I've tried from Arrowhead Mills: the Rice and Shine hot cereal, the chocolate chip cookies, and the white cake is pretty good, too.

Julie (Imsohungry), I made your chocolate chip cookies yesterday. What flour mix do you use? (I'm one of those people that pick and choose flour now like I once would choose between types of tea! Hmm, what do I feel like using today... :lol: )

I used 2/3+1/4 c chickpea flour, 2/3 c soy flour and 2/3 c quinoa flour. I should have thought about the quinoa flour having a strong flavor, but I didn't. I baked a sheet's worth yesterday and tried one. Sorta blech (but my husband said they were okay.) Anyway, this morning while opening presents, I brought the rest of that batch down. My eldest tried one and announced VERY LOUDLY (he's loud in the first place :P ) that these were the most awesome chocolate chip cookies ever! Baffled, I tried one and, omigosh, they are the best! Whatever it is about the recipe and the flours, they melded into a very decedant treat. Mmmm! (So I baked the rest of the batch today and am not letting anyone eat them until tomorrow.)

Thank you for posting the recipe!

Hey Freya! I'm so glad that the cookies baked well for you!!! :P Happy Holidays! I'm actually making the cookies too for a "Christmas treat"...the hubby loves them, and I've got to admit that I'm hooked as well :rolleyes:

You asked what flour I use...mostly the Bob's Red Mill gluten-free flour mix, and that is because I live in a rather rural area and it is sold at Kroger (our local grocery). I would love to experiment with many different flours, but gosh, it's expensive! So, I'm slowly restocking everything and adding variety when I can afford it ;)

I'm just so tickled those cookies turned out for you and your family! Enjoy the holidays :D

Much hugs and happy baking! B);) -Julie

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D.

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after eating them. If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.

      By trents · Posted

      Under the circumstances, your decision to have the testing done on day 14 sounds very reasonable. But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in hospitals or institutional care and I'm guessing your physician would be willing to grant you a diagnosis of gluten sensitivity (NCGS) even if your celiac testing comes up negative. Also, you need to be aware that oats (even gluten free oats) is a common cross reactor in the celiac community. Oat protein (avenin) is similar to gluten. You might want to look at some other gluten free hot  breakfast cereal alternatives.
