It’s true. There really are few things that put a bigger smile on kids faces then when they walk in from a long day at school to find fresh baked colorful cookies and an ice cold glass of milk!
We all know that classic image of mom in the kitchen baking after school snacks while she is perfectly prim and proper. Well, this is the real world and over here, the dog is barking, little ones who aren’t in school yet are needing mommy’s attention and dishes need to be done.
So when I want to surprise my cute little ones with an extra special after school snack, I turn to this recipe. It is super easy and “semi-homemade”, meaning that you use a cookie mix as your base. This leaves very little measuring left for you to do. Believe me, your little ones will be begging you for more gluten-free monster cookies!
I have found that for this recipe, Bob’s Red Mill mix works best. I also really like using the honey peanut butter because it adds a nice sweetness.
Always make sure to double check your ingredients and candies to make sure they are gluten-free. For example, regular M&M’s are gluten-free but the pretzel ones are not.
If you are looking for a flourless variation, my friend Michelle from My Gluten-Free Kitchen has a great recipe! It features gluten-free oats as the main ingredient.

Ingredients Instructions Notes Feel free to experiment with a different gluten-free chocolate chip cookie mixes. It may take a bit of tweaking but it should be fairly easy to swap if you don't have the Bob's Red Mill brand.
