Or was a problem until I went gluten/dairy-free/vegetarian (for the most part). So last week, I embarked on a mission to convert the recipe. I think I succeeded.
** Note: Caveat to the gluten-free-ness - it does contain oatmeal! So, if cooking these for a friend, please be sure oatmeal is on their safe list.
I began by using a recipe from the Gluten-Free Goddess (looourve this website), which you can find here. I combined all dry ingredients to make the flour. Then, I switched back to the Neiman's recipe. Follow the instructions and use the substitutions in parenthesis for my version of the cookies.
1 tsp Baking Soda
1 tsp Baking Powder
1/2 tsp Salt
1 cup Butter (Substitute Vegetable shortening)
1 cup Granulated sugar
1 cup Brown sugar
2 tsp Vanilla (double the original amount)
2 eggs (Substitute Ener-G Egg Replacer)
12 oz Chocolate Chips
Follow the instructions for a tasty treat! I am sure this will evolve next time (like, perhaps, leaving out the baking soda from one or the other) but for now, it's a start! I like to freeze the dough and make a few at a time.
Enjoy!
