Gluten Free Mint Chocolate Chip Cookies
There’s something about chocolate and mint that gets me going. I just love the combo! Plus, chocolate is good for you, right? =) Gluten free cookies can often be dry and crumbly, but these little babies are pretty much the opposite of that. They are simple to make with ingredients that are in most of our pantries.
The best part?
“They don’t taste gluten free!” as exclaimed by my daughter. She even asked if I would make these to bring to her class on her next birthday. Well, that’s almost a year from now, but I’ll keep that in mind…
At any rate, the recipe for these gluten free mint chocolate chip cookies is definitely something to print out and keep on hand for when you need a good cookie recipe to share with someone. You won’t be disappointed!
