Ingredients

  • 3 Tbsp unsalted butter chilled
  • 5 Tbsp brown sugar packed
  • 2 Tbsp egg this is about half an egg, so you can whisk one and use half
  • 6 Tbsp gluten-free all-purpose flour leveled
  • 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract optional, but highly recommended
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This step is crucial as it ensures that your cookie bakes evenly.
  • Line your baking sheet with parchment paper. This will help prevent the cookie from sticking and make for easy cleanup.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, combine the chilled unsalted butter and packed brown sugar. Use a whisk or fork to cream them together until the mixture is smooth and slightly fluffy.
  • Add the beaten egg and pure vanilla extract (if using) to the bowl. Mix until well combined.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, and sea salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix!
  • Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the dough.
  • Using a cookie scoop or spoon, portion out the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Shape it into a large, round mound. Remember, this is one huge cookie, so make it big!
  • Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The center may look slightly underbaked, but it will continue to cook as it cools.
  • Once baked, remove the cookie from the oven and let it cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Enjoy warm with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
