I found these from another page and tweeked it a little bit. I just came back from our "big" Giant in Camp Hill and there was (sadly) no "sweet rice flour" to be found. I had to find it at Wegman's and it was in the Asian foods area. Weird. So hopefully that will help some of you find it. As for xanthan gum: I have seen it randomly, but again, Wegmans was easiest for me. I'm sure a Whole Foods or Trader Joes would have these ingredients too. They are the only two "weird" ingredients in these cookies.
Ingredients:
1 cup butter (softened)
2 eggs
1 tsp. GF vanilla extract
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 cup rice flour (the original recipe calls for 2 1/4 cups-I found this to be too much)
1 tsp. GF baking soda
2 tsp. xanthan gum
1 tsp. salt
12 oz. chocolate chips or nuts, or whatever!
Directions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
2. Combine eggs, butter, and vanilla in your mixer and mix well.
3. Add each of the dry ingredients one by one, slowly.
4. Add your chocolate chips. (You may find this to be a bit sticky or even runny. Do NOT add flour!)
5. Spoon your cookies onto your cookie sheet. I used two teaspoons. One for scooping, the other for pushing it off. I'm sure a cookie baller thingy would be very useful for this! Mine were roughly 1 inch in diameter.
6. Put cookies in oven (duuuuh)
7. Set your timer for 8 minutes. If your cookies still look "mushy" add one more minute. If after that minute, you're still not sure, add one more (maybe even 30 seconds). My first batch took 10 minutes, my second batch took 12, and my third batch took 11. Awesome.
8. Watch them. Diligently.
9. As soon as they start to turn a light brown along the bottom, pull them out! These are not very forgiving. I, personally, like a squishy cookie, so I didn't mind if they weren't completely done. However, be careful that you don't leave them much longer than a light brown color.
There ya go! GF cookies. The only ones that have been successful! :)
Subway would be jealous. :)
