For those that adore a golden, crisp cookies this recipe is for you and even comes with a gluten free twist.
By Veronica Lavenia
This is probably the world’s most popular cookie and it is one of the most beloved in every latitude. As happened with many desserts that later became iconic, this cookie was created by chance by the skilled hands of Ruth Graves Wakefield in 1937. I love the history of the chocolate chips cookie. Once in a while I reread, fascinated by the atmosphere of America in the thirties. After all, through food we can start to know and understand the culture of a people through its cuisine. With a cookie that has a round golden form with a chocolate scent, is easy to be charmed.
This is my gluten-free twist that is suitable for everyone, including those that are intolerant to gluten.
