    I wonder what gluen free flour base is used? Can make a BIG difference. In the video, potato starch, gar/fav bean flour, and arrowroot is mentioned as the base of the flour used, but the recipe (or brand is not provided. Is it provided in the bakery's book? Might have better reviews if this missing section was provided. But do appreciate the effort.

    A lot of people who are going gluten free aren't doing it to take part in a trend, or to be health nuts. In my case, I have a severe allergy to wheat and dairy. So, there isn't anything wrong with 'good old fashioned butter and eggs,' in fact a lot of us would LOVE to be able to indulge in them, but due to health reasons we can't.

    I made these the other day and they turned out ok. I will try them again with a different flour mix to see if we like them better.
    I also would like to comment on some of the negative feedback. My daughter is gluten, dairy, and egg intolerant. The lifestyle change we are going through is dramatic. Of course we would love to eat cookies with milk, butter, eggs, flour, et al, but unfortunately we are unable. Be grateful that you can indulge in everyday products.

    I am shocked by the negative feedback. Made these for my daughter who has wheat and dairy allergies. I added one egg since she's not allergic. The batter tasted like metal but the finished product was very good. I freeze them in individual portions and put them in her lunch.
    It's great to know that there are recipes out there that she can enjoy, especially when there are
    few other options.

    I'm sorry, but aren't cookies supposed to be bad for you? Why are we taking all the good parts of baking out of gluten free cookies? Cookies are a treat and just because the gluten is toxic to our systems doesn't mean we have to do without dairy, eggs, or taste. No wonder the previous poster said they tasted like dirty socks; between the coconut oil and flax meal, it's no wonder. What happed to real sugar, whole eggs, and butter? I doubt that even a dog would want these things. They don't look like cookies. I'm always looking for good gluten free baking products. I am so excited about my order from Yummee Yummee. Their photo of Double Chocolate Delights look 10 times better than these. I just can't wait to try that recipe! Will let you know how they turn out and if they are worth trying.

    we tried to make these. we were excited. my son is gluten free and we have found many substitutes for his favorite foods which is trial and error to say the least. the good things, we make and remake. the bad ones, we say "taste like socks" and we never make them again. this is one of those recipes.
    we followed it to the letter and they baked nicely. the texture looked great. the taste however, was awful. terrible chemical aftertaste. bob's all purpose flour may be the culprit, but if so, the author should have known better.
    it will be a long time before we ever try another recipe in this cookbook.

    to the first poster Celiac is how it is spelled please get it right.....second yes you can have other food problems with celiac but most do not, stop trying to say we all do. Dairy is fine for most of us if it is not fine for you then sub it with something else, petican is also fine for people with celiac disease but if it is not fine for you then sub it, DO NOT say that it is an isue with all celaics because it is not, your post are most likely the reason why food network is not giving us other gluten free stuff, you need to do more research yourself. just because you have celaic disease does not mean that you will have other food allgeries at all---and one last thing you need to get right CELAIC IS NOT A FOOD ALLGERY so stopsaying it is.

    This recipe would be really good if it did not contain applesauce.

    At least it suggests using a gluten-free flour blend instead of wheat flour as many other recipes listed in this gluten-free section do.

    Please keep in mind that Ciliac Disease causes many food allergies besides the gluten intollerance due to the damage to the cilia in the small intestine. Dairy (from bovines--cows, APPLE PECTIN, soy and peanuts are some of the major problems with Ciliac Disease related allergies. My daughter has a servere case of Ciliac Disease. One bite of apple pectin in any form (such as jams and jellies as well as applesaouce could cause her serious problems, such as hives in her throat that would stop her from being able to breathe. She almost died once from taking a single bite from a raspberry tart made with raspberry preserves. The paramedics were able to save her life, fortunately.

    The gluten-free recipes listed on ths site are developed by people who have very few clues about the nature of Ciliac Disease.

    These were really good cookies especially straight out of the oven. M y nieces both have CD and kept asking me if I was sure that they were gluten free : The coconut oil did leave a bit of an after taste but don't let that stop you from making them. Watch cooking time closely, I think I overbaked them a bit.

    I am constantly asking my friends and family "Does this taste gluten free? Can you tell a difference?" Before I even got a chance to ask them, they were asking me for this recipe!
    I even froze some for later.
    I had never baked with coconut oil or flax meal before, but it was very easy.
