Really good. Yummmmmmmmy to be exact. I used them for a cookie exchange and no one even guessed that they were gluten free. Everyone wanted the recipe.

I just made these and they are awesome! They are chewy on the inside and taste like real gluten filled cookie! Thanks so much for this recipe!

Perfect, just like the real thing. No one would even know they were gluten free.

Easiest and most delicious gluten-free recipe I have baked during the past 4 years. It is extremely easy. Definitely use the parchment paper. It helps keep the cookies from spreading out and helps them look like "real" cookies. I will absolutely recommend this recipe to anyone who needs a gluten-free, easy cookie recipe. I used a small cookie scoop and it worked great.

Great recipe- thanks! My niece is now gluten free and my nephew is nut free so this recipe met all my needs. I actually turned them into icecream sandwhiches and the kids (and adults) didn't know the difference. Love how the chocolate does not get lost in the cookie.

To a family who is new to cooking without gluten- these cookies were easy to make and really easy to eat! I only had white rice flour on hand and the cookies turned out GREAT. Make sure to keep the dough in the fridge the entire hour before cooking.

We're big fans of Alton Brown, and he certainly didn't disappoint here. This is a great cookie recipe! I thought it was a little weird to cream melted butter into the sugars (I usually use just softened butter), but I followed the recipe to the letter, and it's wonderful. The cookies are pretty crumbly when they're transfered from the oven to the rack, but they firm up pretty well once they cool.

OK. I have had these from a friend of mine and they are chewy and thck. What in the heck happened to mine? They spread all over the pan, and so all the chocolate chips are in the center and I have thin and crispyish cookie. They taste good, but not what I wanted. Anyone have any insight?

This recipe is absolutely TOPS! I have a daughter with Celiac disease and she was thrilled to be able to have chocolate chip cookies that actually taste delicious! Her two brothers liked them, also, and they have no allergies. Try them!

These are among the best gluten-free cookies I've tasted. They do have a slight graininess from the rice flour, and they were (as promised) chewy. I prefer the crispier variety, so I modified the recipe quite a bit to get a crispier cookie. This variation also has the advantage of hiding some of that graininess. You can't tell the difference from a normal cookie! http://www.blockshots.com/recipes/gluten-free-cookies.html
