I used yellow corn flour because I didn't have white, added about a quarter cup of potato starch till the dough seemed nice, refrigerated only one hour, no chocolate chips, and only baked them ten minutes, because i prefer cookies to be chewy. They turned out PERFECT!!! I'm so happy with every recipe that I've tried from MGCC. Great instructions, you make it so easy to feel like a pro! thanks!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00952862237306864667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6454531829676162260.post-23588977622380415152013-06-01T18:50:15.676-07:002013-06-01T18:50:15.676-07:00YUM!!! made these today... only refrigerated the d...YUM!!! made these today... only refrigerated the dough 1 hour, no chocolate chips and only baked them for ten minutes, because I prefer them chewy.

I turned the heat down and the next plateful was fine. <br />Hope next time works perfect!<br /><br />PS. you had me second guessing myself.. I just mixed these in again and I needed about 1 tsp extra potato starch to be able to handle dough to form a ball... maybe you forgot to add one of the flours?Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02029451742280017744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6454531829676162260.post-49375028294523945512011-03-31T20:11:20.005-07:002011-03-31T20:11:20.005-07:00I made these...taste great, but mine spread out an...I made these...taste great, but mine spread out an were very thin- so thin they couldn't even go on wire cooling racks.

What you can do, however, is buy packaged gluten-free flour mix - should be able to get that at your grocery store. If you a get an all-purpose one you could pretty much substitute equal amounts instead of flour. <br /><br />and thank you Swartzmomto3 for the tip about ginger pills. <br /><br />And Charlotte ... I used the jumbo chocolate chips -- the cookies are about 2 1/2" across... Not so patient after all ! smile...Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02029451742280017744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6454531829676162260.post-29701230201065098202010-09-18T13:19:24.460-07:002010-09-18T13:19:24.460-07:00Great idea with ginger cookies for car sicknesses,...Great idea with ginger cookies for car sicknesses, we just had our first car sickness traveling in the mountains. have to remember thisAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02637197654825767682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6454531829676162260.post-1887226628357170182010-09-18T13:07:06.342-07:002010-09-18T13:07:06.342-07:00you have the patience of a saint to make the cook...you have the patience of a saint to make the cookies so tiny that the chocolate chip looks like a kiss.<br />another great gluten free recipe julie!!!charlotte mgcchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11048116678193513487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6454531829676162260.post-19306965954679029242010-09-18T12:56:51.638-07:002010-09-18T12:56:51.638-07:00I just made a new friend, whose entire family does...I just made a new friend, whose entire family doesn`t eat wheat products, I`m just wondering if you would happen to have any recipes that would be flour free, and not have all the other flours in it?

Thank you. On a side note, about your granddaughter's car sickness, try ginger pills. We have 2 children that suffer from motion sickness and I got the supplement at Walmart a few weeks ago. We just returned from a trip up north and not one complaint of feeling ill for the entire trip.Swartzmomto3https://www.blogger.com/profile/17199164724952568956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6454531829676162260.post-45116922121292659502010-09-18T04:24:00.802-07:002010-09-18T04:24:00.802-07:00These cookies look wonderful and I can't wait ...These cookies look wonderful and I can't wait to give them a try.
