This recipe was one of my first attempts to make Gluten Free Chocolate Chip cookies for my boy. Back when I knew almost nothing about Gluten free Baking and was still experimenting with flowers.
I made Chocolate Chip Cookies for my now teenager last weekend and realized that I needed to update this recipe!
We have come a long way lol!
As I said in the first post, this was the perfect solution for a bored teenager. They literally come out of their caves at the smell of freshly baked cookies with perfect crispy edges.
So if you have a gluten free toddler or teen, here is my updated recipe!

So my neighbor is gluten-free and we attend a Bible study together and I always bring treats, this was by far the easiest recipe. The only thing I changed was adding a tad more sugar and used white chocolate chips instead and they came out so yummy!! This is now my go to recipe when making gluten-free cookies. And I baked them for 12min and mine came out perfectly golden on the bottom. Wish I could show a picture and send the flavor lol

These were nummy. And I love the fact that using the pancake mix eliminates some ingredient steps. Thank you!! My four year old with celiac and I just made these together. He is very happy.
