• 1/2 Cup Brown Sugar
• 3 Tablespoons Water, heated
• 1 Tablespoon Flaxseed Meal
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• 3/4 Cup plus 1 Tablespoon Brown Rice Flour
• 1/4 Cup plus 1 Tablespoon Cornstarch
• 1/4 Cup Cocoa Powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
• 1/2 teaspoon Xanthan Gum
• 1/4 teaspoon Salt
• 1/2 Cup Mini Chocolate Chips

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Heat water in the microwave about 20 seconds. Add flaxseed meal and let sit for 10 minutes.
3. In a medium size bowl whisk together the brown rice flour, cornstarch, cocoa powder, xanthan gum, baking powder and salt.
4. In the bowl of your mixer beat the butter and brown sugar for about a minute.
5. Add the flax-egg and vanilla to the butter mixture and beat again.
6. Add the dry ingredients and mix until combined.
7. Fold in the chocolate chips.
8. On a parchment paper lined baking sheet, form the dough into a 10" by 2" log. Bake for 20 minutes.
9. Remove from oven and let cool for 30 minutes.
10. Slice into 1/2" cookies (makes about 16), being very gentle to keep them from crumbling. Place on baking sheet and bake for another 5 to 10 minutes (being careful not to burn). Then flip and bake 5 to 10 more.
11. Cool and enjoy.
