Some of my favorite childhood memories begin with my mom and me baking for our family. My favorite recipes to make (even today) were homemade chocolate chip cookies and brownies. Ever since we have gone gluten-free, it’s been beyond difficult to replicate a really authentic, homemade chocolate chip cookie. And really, is there anything better?
Last week I was dreaming of this recipe—mostly because I had a zucchini the size of a baseball bat in my fridge, and also because I haven't baked in months. After a little searching, I came across Danielle Walker’s real deal chocolate chip cookie recipe. It looked pretty amazing, so I used it as the base for this recipe—and oh mama I’m glad I did! These cookies are perfect for guests and I bet you could even freeze these during zucchini season (now) and save for a snowy day. What are you waiting for? Give these are try and try not to eat the whole plate.
