One of my favorite cookies of all time is the Monster Cookie. (Which I just realized I don’t have posted here – we must eat them too fast to get pictures!)
As I was scanning that recipe a couple of years ago, considering converting it to something a celiac friend would be able to eat, I realized it was already a gluten-free recipe without even trying to be.
There wasn’t any flour in those cookies in the first place! This is a variation of that Monster Cookie recipe. Just slightly adapted, to make them both gluten and dairy-free for a friend.
Still absolutely delicious, simply use regular chocolate chips if dairy is not a concern.
