These choc chip biscuits/cookies are on regular rotation in our kitchen. They are baked in various flavours (will share other recipes over time), and are a great hit in any hamper that I prepare for family and friends. They are gluten free, but who would know!
Easy to make and easy to eat!
- 125 g butter
- 75 g brown sugar
- 100 g white sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 egg white
- 360 g gluten free flour blend (see notes)
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp vanilla
- 125 g dark chocolate chips
- 125 g walnuts, roughly chopped
- 2 tsp baking powder, gluten free
-
Preheat oven to 170˚.
-
Cream butter, sugars and vanilla.
-
Add lightly beaten egg and egg white and beat well.
-
Mix in flour and salt and mix well.
-
Add chocolate chips and chopped walnuts and mix well.
-
Shape teaspoonfuls of mixture into small balls and place on baking tray lined with baking paper.
-
Bake 20 minutes until lightly golden.
-
Cool on wire rack.
-
Store in an airtight jar or container.
If you're pushed for time, roll the dough into logs about 2.5 cm thick, then cut into 1 cm thick rounds and place on prepared baking tray.
We like our biscuits crisp, not chewy, so once they are all baked, I often reduce the heat of the oven to 70˚C, and then place them back in the oven for another hour.
