Dairy and Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookies

gluten free dairy free chocolate chip cookies

I recently received an awesome package from Good Cook with items from their Sweet Creations line.  I love making “sweet creations” and this time our challenge was cookies!   I knew immediately which cookie recipe I had to try first!  These yummy dairy and gluten-free chocolate chip cookies!  They’re the best and perfect for those Christmas cookie exchanges!

In my super awesome package were cookie cutters(watch for those being featured soon), a cookie dropper(an awesome invention!), a brand new high temp spatula with wooden handle and handy conversion chart(ingenious), a handy-dandy flex cookie turner(scratch free!), two aluminum cookie sheets(of the large variety), and a set of three sweet mixing bowls.  For this recipe I used the spatula, cookie scoop, cookie turner, and cookie sheets.

We love cookies in our house and the first cookies I had to make were for my husband.  He loves chocolate chip cookies but I honestly can’t remember the last time I made them for him.  So I’m sharing our favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe which is also gluten and dairy free.  You can make it egg free by making a chia egg to replace the eggs as well, but since we’re not egg allergic we don’t do this.  I have friends with an egg allergic little boy so I always test it out to make sure it works before letting you know.  This one recipe gets the A.O.K. for adding the chia egg instead of an egg.

Here’s what you’ll need:

1/2 cup coconut oil
1/2 cup palm shortening
1 cup firmly packed coconut palm sugar
1/2 cup organic raw cane sugar
3/4 tsp sea salt
2 tsp pure vanilla(I make my own)
2 large eggs or 2 chia eggs
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
2-1/2 cup baking flour(gluten-free of course) you can try this blend or this blend they both work well
2 cups of your favorite allergy friendly chocolate chips

I use my kitchenaid to mix these up.  It makes a really good whip and it’s needed to make these turn out right(trust me I’ve messed them up before).

First preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Now you are going to mix the shortening, coconut oil, and two sugars together.

Mix, mix, mix these.  I mean really mix them.  Make sure to mix them until they are light and fluffy to make these cookies work.

While these are mixing in a separate bowl mix up the dry ingredients so that it’s ready to add to the cookies.

Mix in the vanilla.

Mix in the eggs.

Now mix in the flour and dry ingredients.

Using your cookie sheets and cookie scoop dish out the cookie dough.

Bake for 8-9 minutes.

I leave mine on the cookie sheets out of the oven for 1-2 minutes before placing on a cooling rack.

Once cool they’re ready to enjoy.  My husband loves his with fresh cold milk.  I like mine with my coffee.

    These really do look scrumptious. Though, I am not sure if I would be able to find all the ingredients (the downside to living in such a rural area). I will have to take a look. We don’t have issues with gluten, but I do want to try to get back to eating wheat free like I was last year, and I have friends who have to eat gluten free, so it is nice to have recipes to make that I can share with them.
    Thanks for sharing with Throwback Thursday Blog-Style and being a faithful participant. I just wanted to let you know that Throwback Thursday will be taking a break for Christmas, but we will be back the next week in the new year!
    Wishing you are your family a very blessed Christmas and a wonderful new year!
