Notes
Check chocolate chips: Ensure your chocolate chips are certified dairy-free. Stick to brands that specifically produce allergen-free options.
Don't overmix: Mix the cookie dough until just combined to prevent it from becoming too dense or tough, as gf flour can behave differently from wheat flour.
Chill the cookie dough: Letting the dough chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes can help the cookies hold their shape better while improving their texture.
Keep an eye on the baking time: Gluten-free cookies can burn easily, so remove them from the oven once the edges start to brown.
