Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup butter or dairy-free alternative, softened
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup chocolate chips or other mix-ins (nuts, sprinkles, etc.)

Instructions

  1. Preheat & Prepare – Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a round or square cake pan.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients – In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Cream Butter & Sugars – In a separate large bowl, beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add Eggs & Vanilla – Mix in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
  5. Combine Wet & Dry Ingredients – Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
  6. Fold in Chocolate Chips – Gently mix in the chocolate chips or other preferred mix-ins.
  7. Transfer & Bake – Spread the dough evenly into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Cool & Decorate – Let the cookie cake cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Decorate with frosting, additional chocolate chips, or sprinkles if desired.
  9. Slice & Serve – Enjoy your delicious gluten-free cookie cake with family and friends!

Notes

  • Dairy-Free Option – Use a plant-based butter alternative and dairy-free chocolate chips.
  • Nutty Flavor – Add chopped nuts such as almonds, pecans, or walnuts for extra crunch.
  • Different Mix-ins – Swap out chocolate chips for white chocolate, butterscotch chips, or dried fruit.
  • Frosting Choices – Decorate with chocolate or vanilla buttercream, or drizzle with melted chocolate.
