Gluten-Free Toffee Walnut Chocolate Chip Cookies
These gluten-free toffee walnut chocolate chip cookies have all the best flavors combined in one cookie.
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.

Walnuts – Try to find the finely chopped walnuts, or chop them into tiny pieces
Toffee Bits – You can find the Heath English Toffee Bitsat most places they are usually where the chocolate chips are located.
Sea Salt Flakes (optional) – To sprinkle over the cookies once they are out of the oven for that sweet salty combo.

- In a large mixing bow, beat the softened butter with both sugars until light and creamy.
- Add the eggs and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth.
- Add the flour, salt, and baking soda. Mix well.

- Using a large cookie scoop or 1/4 cup measuring up, drop the cookie dough onto the baking sheet and bake approximately 15-18 minutes or until the edges are lightly brown.
- Sprinkle with sea salt flakes if desired.
Recipe Tips
- A smaller cookie scoop will yield more cookies, remember to reduce the cooking time so they don’t burn.
