If you are missing out on those chewy fresh from-the-bakery style cookies, these will surely satisfy that carving. This is another recipe that uses gluten-free flour, however, they do also suggest the use of dark rum in these cookies.
Dark rum is an optional addition, and while most of us probably would not think to add rum to cookies, we can see why it might be a delicious addition.
Aside from this, these cookies are pretty traditional, although they do include the use of brown sugar, which is not used in all cookie recipes, but gives it a richer flavor, which will go great with that rum taste!

In our minds, the perfect cookie is soft and gooey in the middle, with a chewy yet golden edge. The cookie body has a sweet yet buttery texture, and then packed chocolate chips are hidden inside to delight your taste buds.

A cookie fit for a magical king! We want some! This recipe takes 12 minutes to 12, and 9–11 minutes to bake and produces delicious 3-dozen cookies!
The ingredient list is more extensive than others on our list sadly, and it needs an hour of refrigeration before you bake.
This does make them a little less ideal than some others, but if you are willing to put in the effort for these cookies, they will ensure you are okay with it!
Perhaps you prefer cookies that are a bit richer than super sweet and enjoy the flavor-packed deliciousness that comes with a well-cooked cookie. These cookies are dark and super chocolaty; they are kind of fudge-like.
If you are a fan of cookies, and a fan of fudge, these are probably the best cookies you could ever have. They are a bit like if you mixed a brownie with a chocolate cake and then turned it into a cookie.
They are chewy and soft, and while they are rich they are not ‘too’ sweet, like fudge or brownies which can be a bit sickly for some people.
These cookies do not ‘look’ perfect, but they do not need to, their taste is gorgeous.
They’re butter and crispy on the outside, but their inside is chewy and dense, this makes for the perfect mouth-feel and the perfect taste all in one cookie!
The ingredients are fairly simplistic, however, you should expect these cookies to take a couple of days to make, as the dough needs to be chilled for 1–2 days, if you are impatient you can wait 2 hours, however, most of us like our cookies much quicker than this!
While crispy, or crumbly cookies are a favorite for some, most of us enjoy chewy cookies.
While we have mentioned a few other chewy chocolate chip cookies with no gluten in this recipe list, this one is by far the penultimate choice.
It has a crispy edge, and a gooey center, with oodles of gooey tasty chocolate.
The recipe is also humble enough not to say they’re the “BEST” but, in our opinion they probably are, if you want something gooey and chewy that is.
On the downside, however, the dough also needs to be chilled for these cookies, so you won’t be able to have them within an hour or two.
They are also not vegan-friendly and do contain dairy. They contain egg yolks, butter, and cream cheese.
While they are not friendly to dairy intolerance or vegans, they are gluten-free and delicious.
