Gluten Free Toll House Cookies (and Cookie Cake!)


Once you've made my gluten free flour mix, you NEED to make the following cookie recipe.

GF Toll House Cookies (adapted fromverybestbaking.com)

2 1/4 cups Julia’s all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon gf vanilla extract
2 large eggs
2 cups (12-oz. pkg.) gf chocolate chips


Directions:
PREHEAT oven to 375° F.

COMBINE flour, baking soda and salt in small bowl. Beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla extract in large mixer bowl until creamy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in morsels and nuts. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets.

BAKE for 9 to 11 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.

*By the way, I always just dump all of the ingredients and mix them. I can't stand recipes with too many steps. If they don't work when I dump it, I usually won't keep the recipe!

*This makes a great cookie cake. Just spread it in a round pizza pan. Bake 18 minutes.

I don't have any reason to eat GF, except that Julia's cookies are some of the best chocolate chip cookies I've ever had. And I'm picky. And love sweets. Now if I could just be free enough to NOT follow the directions... :)
