Gluten Free New York Cookies

Print Recipe

Ingredients
  

  • 230g unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 130g light brown sugar
  • 130g caster sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 440g gluten free plain flour
  • 1½ tsp baking powder
  • 27g cornflour
  • pinch of salt
  • 300g dark chocolate chips
  • 200g walnuts, roughly chopped
  • sea salt flakes (optional)

Instructions
 

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, beat the butter for 2 minutes on medium speed. Add the sugars and beat for a further 2-3 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl to ensure all of the butter is fully incorporated.
  • Add the eggs one at a time on low speed until just incorporated.
  • Add the dry ingredients and beat until fully incorporated.
  • On low speed add the chocolate chips and walnuts to combine.
  • Weigh each cookie dough ball to 150g. Chill in fridge for at least 3 hours before baking.
  • When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 180°C and line a baking tray with baking paper. Place cookie dough balls onto the tray, at least 2cm apart, top with sea salt flakes if using and bake for 16-18 minutes until golden on top.
  • Allow to cool for 10-15 minutes before enjoying (the cookies need this extra time to continue cooking at room temperature).

Notes

I didn't have chocolate chips, but I did use 100g dark chocolate and 200g white chocolate roughly chopped and it turned out beautifully too.
