Gluten-Free Chopped Chocolate Cookies are full of chopped chocolate that permeates and melt inside the cookie. Watch out or these cookies will be devoured as soon as they are cooled.  Not to mention these make the perfect treat for moms, dads, kids, and even Santa. I think I heard him say once it was his favorite cookie.A closeup picture of a plate of Gluten-Free Chopped Chocolate Cookies

Personal Life

Needless to say that cookies are perfect for any time of the year. Indeed they are the perfect treat to serve after school or to friends and family. Consequently, I am a chocolate lover and therefore often make a double recipe. Then I scoop them into balls and freeze them. Thus, I can remove all or several at a time and have fresh hot cookies in no time.

When Making During the Holidays:

In all honesty, I am on my final prep days for our Christmas smorgasbord. There is Lefsa, Pickled Beets, Swedish Pickled Cucumber, Bread and Butter Pickles, and Lingonberry Jam 2, or Swedish Lingonberry Jam.

I hope that we are able to go to Midnight Candlelight Service on Christmas Eve but it will depend upon my family’s work schedules. For as long as I can remember I have always gone to church on Christmas Eve. When my mother lived in Sweden she too would attend candlelight service. Naturally, it is one of my family’s traditions. What are your traditions? Please leave them in the comment area. Needless to say, I would love to hear about your traditions.

About Gluten-Free Chopped Chocolate Cookies:

Unfortunately, these cookies are expensive to make due to the fact they use cassava flour and monk fruit sweetener. Not to mention, that I ran out of Cocoa Butter so I didn’t have the option of making chocolate chips. However, if you want to make chocolate chips from scratch follow my recipe here. Therefore, I used three of the Zazubean Nudie Dark Chocolate Bars. Believe it or not, they ran about 4 dollars for 3 oz. Not to mention, the cost of the cassava flour, Birch Xylitol or Monk Fruit Sweetener, Maple sugar, and butter. Needless to say, I have not had Chocolate Chip cookies for well over a year. Having Gluten-Free Chopped Chocolate Cookies was such a treat. Or you can choose to Freeze cookies and make fresh ones any time you choose.

Read my blog posts about Cassava Flour Information and Monk Fruit Information. Cassava Flour and Monk Fruit Sweetener can be found at Amazon.

Information on Xylitol

Additionally, I used Birch Xylitol in this recipe. What is Birch Xylitol? In fact, it is an extract naturally occurring in many fruits and vegetables. In fact, it is widely used as a sugar substitute in gum. Not all Xylitol is alike. Birch Xylitol is made from Birchwood. Interestingly enough Xylitol can be made from corn so be sure to read the label. In my opinion, it is sweeter than Monk Fruit Sweetener and therefore you can use less of it. However, I recommend that you do your own research to find out if Xylitol is something you would want to use. In other words, please be aware that Xylitol is toxic to dogs. Not to mention, that a small amount can be fatal for dogs.

This made approximately 85 cookies. Nutritional facts are without nuts as I did not add nuts.
