Notes

To make these Fudgy Brownie Cookies without gluten simply replace the flour with a gluten free flour blend. Just ensure that the blend contains a binding agent, like xanthan gum or guar gum to achieve the desired texture. It is crucial to remember that other free flours may soak moisture differently so you may need to adjust the quantity. If you'd like to add some flavor to the cookies feel free to experiment with almond flour or a variety of gluten free flours. Devour the taste and fudgy goodness of these cookies in a version that can be savored by everyone regardless of restrictions!
