Gluten-Free Red Velvet Chocolate Chip Cookies

These gluten-free red velvet chocolate chip cookies are soft, chewy and chocolately delicious! They are super easy to make and would be perfect to make for Valentines Day.

Ingredients 

  • 1 1/2 cups Glutagon gluten-free all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened to room temperature. 
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 egg, room temperature
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon red food coloring, or all natural food coloring
  • 1 cup chocolate chips- I used 1/2 cup white chocolate chips and 1/2 cup chocolate chips,

Instructions 

  • In a large bowl beat butter until creamy.
  • Add the brown sugar and sugar to the butter and beat until creamy. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed. 
  • Beat in the egg, milk, and pure vanilla extract and mix until fully combined.
      • Add red food coloring and mix until fully combined.
      • In a medium bowl add gluten-free flour, salt, cocoa powder and baking soda and whisk together until fully combined.
      • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until fully combined.
      • Add chocolate chips and mix until fully combined.
      • Cover the cookie dough and chill for at least 1 hour.
      • Preheat oven to 175 degrees.
      • Line two large cookie sheets with parchment paper.
      • Scoop a heaping tablespoon of the cookie dough and roll into a ball. (I use a cookie scoop.)
      • Place cookie balls onto lined cookie sheets and bake for 11-12 minutes.
      • The cookies will not spread too much while baking.
      • Once cookies are done, press down on the warm cookies to slightly flatten and form crinkles. I even stick a few chocolate chips into the tops of the warm cookies.
      • Allow the cookies to cool on the cookie sheet for at least 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
