Best Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookies

20130804-182844.jpg

I got this recipe off of the back of the Enjoy Life Brand chocolate chips! If you have been following this blog, you know that I love the products from Enjoy Life and recommend them for those who have food allergy issues.

I am not dairy free anymore so I changed the recipe slightly, here is my version below:

Ingredients:

2/3 cup butter
1 egg
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 granulated sugar
1 tbsp vanilla
1/3 cup water

2 -1/4 cup all purpose GF flour (I used an almond blend from Gluten Free Mama)
1 tsp xanthan gum
1-1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder

1 bag of Enjoy Chocolate Chips!

Directions:

1. Preheat to 375 degrees.

2. Cream butter and add sugars, egg, vanilla and water.

3. Mix together flour and all other dry ingredients in a separate bowl.

4. Slowly add the dry mixture to the wet and beat until combined.

5. Add chocolate chips!

I use a stainless steel scoop and dropped 9 cookies evenly spaced (2-3 inches apart) and I use parchment paper so I have less clean up.

Bake for about 8 mins and remove to cool on a cooling rack.

Final step- EAT THEM ALL!

As most of you know, I eat Gluten Free. Today I would like to share some amazing gluten, dairy, nut & soy free products! These are made by Enjoy Life, you can visit their website by clicking HERE!

Personally, my favorite product is the soft baked snicker-doodle cookies! These cookies are soft and chewy with just the right mix of cinnamon and sugar to leave you satisfied! They are smaller in size compared to some cookies but this is good for your waistline. Just because these are major allergen free and non GMO does not mean they are “good for you”. So moderation is key! I’m laughing as I type that because when these are in the pantry, they do not last long at all!

I also greatly enjoy the chocolate products they make as well! I keep the chocolate chips in my pantry on a regular basis for baking. They are also great to have a small handful when you just “need” chocolate! The chocolate bars are delicious too, I especially enjoy the dark and rice milk crunch bars.

This company makes a variety of flavors and products including snack bars, chips made from lentils and more! These products are available online and in stores!

I recently purchased a box of my favorite snicker doodle cookies and discovered to my surprise that one was missing! During production, one had been left out. I emailed the company and a sweet lady named Beth responded with an apology and coupons. I was greatly impressed with the customer service I received.

I contacted Beth again this week and she has agreed to give 3 of my followers a FREE Enjoy Life product!!!! You must comment below and be a follower of Jacks Crunchy Mama to enter. The drawing will be held Monday, May 13th and announced at 6:00pm CST.
