Hi. It’s Lois in the kitchen, telling you about some wonderful Gluten Free Mint Chocolate Chip Cookies I made.
I’ve been hungry for cookies lately. I looked in the cupboard and found a 10-ounce package of Andes Creme de Menthe Baking Chips and decided to make some gluten-free cookies. And I’m glad I did! They are amazing. Great texture. Bursting with flavor.
Gluten free bakery can be a little grainy, but these cookies were super. If you underbake cookies just a bit, they will be chewy (which is the way I like them).
