I can’t tell you how many times I’ve gone to make cookies and I didn’t have any butter – or flour – and didn’t make cookies because I thought I couldn’t! My twin sister no joke gave me a 4 POUND bag of chocolate chips for Christmas. She knows I love adding chocolate chips to pancakes, muffins, waffles, smoothies, or just a handful for a snack!
So this GIANT bag has been in my pantry and before my kids eat it all by the handful I thought I would make cookies. I went to Pinterest and searched for chocolate chip cookies and a few of the posts were for flourless cookies. Huh? Could that work? I read about a dozen recipes, and read the comments for those recipes – some cookies turned out flat as a pancake and others turned out perfectly.
So I decided to give it a shot and these cookies are delicious – no flour – no butter and Gluten Free!
