these cookies are some the best i’ve made recently, double chocolate goodness with an hint of salt. these cookies were super moist and soft – borderline brownie cookie. perfect for those chocolate lovers in your life. best of all they are gluten-free and taste like a real cookie! (at least i think so… as do my friends!) i liked mine topped with a bit of sea salt but i think a few peppermint pieces would be a perfect addition for the holiday.
