I came up with this recipe after trying Alton Brown's recipe and was disappointed at the lack of chewyness, so I altered the ingredients to make it more chewy. I kept them in a an airtight container. After two days they were still chewy but started to stick to each other a little bit so make sure that if you make a big batch separate them with parchment paper.Chewy Chocolate chip cookies (makes 14 medium size cookies)
Dry ingredients
1 cup rice flour
1/4 cup corn starch
3 tbsp tapioca flour
1/2 tsp xantham gum
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
pinch of salt
Wet ingredients
1 stick butter (1/2 cup) at room temperature
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup honey
1 whole egg
1 egg yolk
1 tsp vanilla
3/4 cup chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350F and cover a sheet pan with parchment paper.
Combine all the dry ingredients in a small bowl.
Beat butter and sugar. Add honey, eggs and vanilla.
Add all the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and finally fold in the chocolate chips.
Refrigerate for about 1/2 to 1 hour (I also tried without refrigerating and they came good but they are better after chillin' in the fridge). Scoop with ice cream scooper. I always add a few more chocolate chips on top of the cookie after I scoop it.
Bake for 9-12 minutes.
Enjoy and savor every bite, I did :)
