I love a good cookie, it can be sorta plain like these Gluten-Free Snickerdoodle Cookies or a bit extra like these Gluten-Free Double Chocolate Chip Cookies. Either way cookies are always fun to have on hand, it’s like the best little treat.

Toffee Bits – You can find the Heath English Toffee Bitsat most places they are usually where the chocolate chips are located.

Notes

These can be made using regular flour. Just substitute in regular all-purpose flour for gluten-free flour.
Cooking times are approximate as all ovens are different.  I suggest checking at the lowest time and adding if needed.
Full batch makes approx 30 large 1/4 cup cookies
1/2 batch makes approx 15 - 17  large 1/4 cup cookies
The cookie dough freezes well, to bake just remove from freezer and bake frozen, keep in mind cook times may vary.
