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!

Kosher salt
Baking soda
