I am a big fan of dark chocolate M&M’s, but you can use any type (or organic alternative) you prefer to make these gluten-free cookies. This recipe differs from my chocolate chip cookie recipe, using less sugar to compensate for the sweet candy and a thicker cookie well suited for the M&M’s. The recipe makes about 3 dozen cookies.

Ingredients:

  • 1 C butter
  • 1 C brown sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 ½  C white rice flour
  • 1 C tapioca flour
  • 1 C sorghum flour
  • ½ C almond flour
  • 1 T baking powder
  • 1 t xanthan gum
  • 10 oz bag of M&M’s

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Mix butter and brown sugar. Add eggs and mix thoroughly. Add flours, baking powder, and xanthum gum all at once, then mix until smooth. Add M&M’s and mix to distribute evenly through dough.

Roll into one inch balls and then press to 1/2″ thickness on parchment-covered baking sheet.  Bake at 350 for 12 – 14 min.

Enjoy!
