Chocolate chip cookies

I have a new favorite flour mix!
It is called mama's almond blend and it works cup for cup! In celebration, here is my first recipe using it, enjoy! :)

Ingredients:
2 1/4 cups Gluten-Free Flour Blend
1 teaspoon gluten-free baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon xanthan gum
3/4 cup Butter, softened
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
2 Eggs
2 teaspoons gluten-free vanilla
1 package gluten-free chocolate chips

Heat oven to 375°F. Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and xanthan gum in medium bowl. Set aside.

Combine butter, brown sugar and sugar in large bowl. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until creamy. Add eggs and vanilla. Continue beating, scraping bowl often, until well mixed.

Reduce speed to low. Beat, gradually adding flour mixture, until well mixed. Stir in chocolate chips.

Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls, 2 inches apart, onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake for 9 minutes until light golden brown. (DO NOT OVERBAKE.) Let stand 1 to 2 minutes.
