For the life of me I can never remember off the top of my head the Chocolate Chip cookie recipe I've been
using for years. I always have to find that little yellow piece of paper where I have the ingredients written
down. Since I'm tired of winging it and sometimes getting some odd cookies out of the deal. And since I just
made the ones pictured, I'll make a blog post about it so that I have a place to look. Then I'll be able to
commit it to memory. Cause that's how it works.
This recipe is also a good base for any other kind of creative cookies you want to make. I've put all kinds
of things in these cookies like M&Ms, nuts, coconut, marshmellows, and more. Once, like my Mac & Geez, I put everything I had in these things
and called them Kitchen Sink cookies. Didn't really pan out to be that great, but the cookie part turned out!
In the title, it reads as gluten-free, but with the use of the table below, I will show you what
you can use to make them gluten free, soy free, dairy free, and they are naturally corn free. Pretty
much butter, sugar, and flour of some kind. Delicious!
Regular | Gluten Free | Dairy Free | Soy Free | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Flour | 2 1/4 Cups Plain ol Flour | 2 1/4 Cups Gluten Free Flour | 2 1/4 Cups Flour | 2 1/4 Cups Flour |
Baking Soda | 1 tspn Plain ol BS | 1 tspn You can use Bob's, but it's spensive and no one says that regular isn't gluten free | same | same |
Salt | 1/2 tspn salt | 1/2 tspn salt | uh,salt | salt |
I know you see sugar as the first two and sugar isn't wet I know, but I group the ingredients into wet and dry and the sugar goes it the wet.. It'll make sense in a little bit.
Regular | Gluten Free | Dairy Free | Soy Free | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Brown Sugar | 3/4 cup brown sugar | same | same | same |
White Sugar | 3/4 cup white sugar | same | same | same |
Butter | 1 stick margarine or butter | same | 1 stick margarine (usually soy/veggie oil) | 1 stick sweet cream butter |
Eggs | 1 egg | 1 egg | 1/4 cup oil | 1 egg |
Vanilla Extract | 1 tspn | 1 tspn PURE extract (more expensive) | same | same |
How for the fast part... The directions:
Scoop or teaspoon the mixed batter onto cookie sheets. As you can see a roll of parchment paper helps
the cooking and removing cookie process by a lot! Put in a preheated 325 degree oven for about 12 - 15
minutes. You'll know when they are done when they looked like cookies that are not burnt. This makes about 50 regular sized cookies and if you cost it out it's about $2.52 for the batch of regular cookies - that's a nickle a cookie!! Not so famous amos.. Enjoy!
