Gluten Free Chocolate Chippers

whew!  i thought i had lost this recipe, but found it on an old photo caption on a Facebook post.  my difficulty in tracking down my own recipe says to me that it's been way too long since i made these.  here again is the recipe for the best gluten free chocolate chippers ever.  my recipe:

one stick butter, melted or soft
1/2 c brown sugar
1/4 c organic white sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla
cream together...
...add 1 egg and beat well

combine dry ingredients:
1/2 cup almonds, ground to a fine meal
plus 1 TBSP brown rice flower

1/2 c brown rice flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda

mix dry ingredients into wet ingredients and let sit for a good 10 minutes.

add 1/2 c chopped walnuts
add 1 c mini semi sweet chips

drop by small spoonful to baking sheet. don't try to make them too big or they will just spread out too much. my cookies turned out about 3 inches across once baked.

bake at 375 degrees for 8 minutes

remove carefully to wire rack and let cool

makes about 2 dozen cookies.
