Gluten Free Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

I know that this time of year most people are looking for healthy recipes to help with their resolutions but I couldn't resist sharing one last delicious cookie recipe this year.  This is my all time favorite gluten free cookie recipe I've ever made.  These cookies have my favorite combination of chocolate AND peanut butter (doesn't get much better than that!).  They have the perfect texture and don't taste gluten free at all.  I made 3 dozen of them yesterday and had to give them away because I couldn't stop eating them; they are so good.  Try these cookies for your New Years Eve party this year.  Trust me, no one will know they're gluten free.

Gluten Free Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients:

1/2 cup butter, softened

1/2 cup peanut butter

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup packed brown sugar or 1/4 cup honey

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp baking powder

1 egg

1/2 tsp vanilla

1 1/4 cup gluten free all purpose flour (I used Bob's Red Mill for this recipe but you can use any kind)

1/4 tsp Xanthan Gum

1/2-1 Tbsp milk

1/2- 1 cup chocolate chips (depending on how chocolatey you want them)

Directions:

1.  In large mixing bowl combine all of the ingredients except for milk and chocolate chips.  Mix thoroughly.  Add enough milk until the dough is smooth and creamy.  Add chocolate chips and mix in.

2. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.  Form dough into small balls and drop onto cookie sheet.

3.  Bake for 7-9 minutes and transfer onto a wire rack to cool.
