Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Sea salt
• 0.75 cup Unsalted butter (softened)
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar (packed)
• 2 pieces Large eggs
• 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
• 0.75 teaspoon Pure peppermint extract
• 1 cup Gluten-free chocolate chips
• 0.25 cup Optional: crushed peppermint candies or chocolate shavings for garnish

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together gluten-free all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, mix in the vanilla extract and peppermint extract until fully incorporated.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Fold in the gluten-free chocolate chips using a spatula until evenly distributed.

Step 7

Using a medium cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cookies are set around the edges but still appear slightly soft in the center.

Step 9

Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Optional: Sprinkle crushed peppermint candies or chocolate shavings over the cookies while they are still warm for an extra festive touch.

Step 11

Serve and enjoy your Gluten-Free Chocolate Mint Chip Cookies with a glass of milk or a warm cup of tea!
