Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the oil, evaporated cane juice, applesauce, cocoa powder, salt, and vanilla. In another medium bowl, whisk together the flour, flax meal, baking soda, and xanthan gum. Using a rubber spatula, carefully add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture and combine until dough is formed. Gently fold in the chocolate chips just until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Using a melon-baller or tablespoon, scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them 1-inch apart. Gently press each with the heel of your hand to help them spread. Bake on the center rack for 14 minutes, rotating the trays 180 degrees after 7 minutes. The cookies will be crispy on the edges and soft in the center.
- Let the cookies stand on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, then transfer the cookies to a wire rack and cool completely before covering. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
GLUTEN-FREE DOUBLE CHOCOLATE COOKIES
These are probably the best gluten-free cookies I've ever made. Not chalky, but chewy. I haven't tried making these egg-free, but that might work. I make a flour mix for baking that is quarter each of rice, sorghum, tapioca, and chestnut flours, with a pinch of xanthan gum, then use it in place of flour...sifting or whisking helps. I dusted with confectioners' sugar...looks nice with the dark chocolate.

GLUTEN-FREE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
Almond flour is the only special ingredient needed to make these cookies, and it can be found in the baking aisle or the health food section of the grocery store. It provides the protein and structure of a classic wheat flour, while keeping the cookie perfectly chewy in the center. If you want a stronger almond flavor, toast the almond flour in a dry skillet over medium-low heat until golden and fragrant, and cool before using. This recipe was adapted from the Times's famous chocolate chip cookie recipe, but unlike that recipe, this dough does not require 36 hours of refrigeration before baking. Chopped chocolate or feves make for a gooier cookie, but classic chocolate chips work here, too. This recipe makes huge, bakery-style cookies, but if you want smaller cookies, use 1/4-cup mounds of dough and bake for 16 to 18 minutes, or a 2-tablespoon scoops and bake for for 10 to 12 minutes.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the almond flour, salt and baking soda to combine.
- Using a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar on medium speed until very light, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Add the egg and mix on medium speed to combine. Scrape the bowl well, then add the vanilla and mix to combine.
- Add the dry ingredients and mix on low speed until just combined, about 10 seconds. Scrape the bowl well and mix on low speed to ensure the mixture is homogenous.
- Add the chocolate and gently mix to incorporate it. Scoop the dough into 10 3 1/2 ounce/100-gram mounds of dough the size of generous golf balls, and transfer them to the prepared baking sheets. Stagger the rows to allow the cookies room to spread.
- Gently press the cookies down slightly with your fingers until about 1 1/2 inches thick. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt, if using. Bake the cookies, switching racks and rotating the sheets halfway through, until they're golden brown around the edges and just barely set in the center, 18 to 22 minutes. Transfer sheets to a wire rack for 10 minutes, then transfer cookies with a spatula onto another rack to cool a bit more.
Tips:
- Measure Ingredients Accurately: Use a kitchen scale to measure ingredients for precise results, as gluten-free flours can absorb liquids differently than wheat flour.
- Chill the Dough: Chilling the dough before baking helps prevent the cookies from spreading too much and keeps them chewy.
- Use Quality Chocolate Chips: Look for high-quality chocolate chips that contain real cocoa butter and no artificial ingredients.
- Don't Overmix the Dough: Overmixing the dough can result in tough cookies. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the Cookies at the Proper Temperature: Bake the cookies at the recommended temperature and time to ensure they are cooked thoroughly but not overbaked.
Conclusion:
These gluten-free double chocolate chip cookies are a delicious and indulgent treat that can be enjoyed by everyone, regardless of dietary restrictions. With their rich chocolate flavor, chewy texture, and crispy edges, these cookies are sure to become a favorite. Follow the tips above to ensure your cookies turn out perfect every time!
