Servings: 30 Cookies
Calories: 176kcal
Equipment
- Parchment Paper
Ingredients
- 1 cup Butter softened
- 1 cup Light brown sugar packed
- ½ cup Granulated sugar
- 2 Large eggs
- 1 ½ tablespoon Buttermilk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Sorghum flour
- 1 cup Brown rice flour
- ¼ cup Cocoa
- ¼ cup Coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- ½ teaspoon Baking powder
- Red food colouring
- 2 cup Milk chocolate chips (1 bag)
Instructions
- In stand mixer, cream butter and sugar until fluffy.
- Add eggs, milk, and vanilla, beat until everything is fully incorporated and smooth.
- In a large bowl, mix together remaining ingredients - except food colouring and chocolate chips. Slowly add this dry mix to the mixer bowl, and carefully mix until well incorporated and smooth.
- Use food colouring to tint the batter to your desired level of red, then mix in the chocolate chips.
- Wrap dough in plastic, chill for 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 375F (190 C), line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Roll 1" balls out of the cookie dough. Arrange dough balls on baking sheets leaving at least 2" between cookies - they flatten out a fair amount.
- Gently press the tops of each slightly - flatten JUST enough to prevent the dough from rolling.
- Bake for 11-13 minutes.
- Cookies will look puffy, but flatten out as they cool. Do not over bake!
Notes
Note: This recipe originally called for 1 cup Sorghum flour, 1 cup Brown rice flour, ¼ cup Coconut flour, and 2 tablespoon Tapioca starch.
In 2023, it was updated to use my now-standard “cookie” set of flours, simplifying it a bit.
