Chocolate Chip Cookies {Gluten Free}

Mmm, cookies. Chocolate chip cookies. Gluten free chocolate chip cookies, and no one will ever know they are. Really, my cookie jar is already about gone, from them eating them. These really came out good, they're a soft cookie. Mine didn't really flatten out like hers did, my scoop remained scoop shape, so I smooshed the rest with the bottom of a cup. Either way they're fine. What I found to be different with this recipe is you add the sugars with the dry ingredients, you don't cream them with the butter. I followed directions, and found that they seemed a little gritty (not bad), so I think next time I will cream them together. So if you have any gluten free friends, show them these cookies or surprise them and make them a batch. =)
