I started with one of my traditional Toll House Cookies recipes. I swapped out Cup4Cup gluten free flour for regular flour and Madhava coconut sugar for cane sugar in the recipe. I also used miniature Toll House chocolate chips instead of the regular size. I baked it in a cast-iron skillet and then topped it off with Blue Bell ice cream and Ghirardelli chocolate sauce. Can I hear an AMEN? 🙂
My goodness, this skillet cookie was all I could have hoped for. It was certainly a chocolate explosion. It was also one of the best ways to eat a Chocolate Chip Cookie that I’ve ever experienced. I ate so much of this divine cookie that I finally had to pack it into the freezer so I would stay out of it. Yes, Gluten Free Toll House Skillet Cookie was addictive! It surely doesn’t hurt to have lots of chocolate sauce dripping all over it either….or oozing with ice cream.
A couple of months ago, I was searching through my pantry seeing what I could throw together to satisfy my sweet tooth cravings. I thought this delicious spin on traditional Toll House Cookies was awesome. Seriously, if you didn’t know you were eating gluten free you’d never know it. The coconut sugar tasted very similarly to having a cookie made with brown sugar. I loved the way these skillet cookies turned out.
If you’re looking for a dessert your family and friends will rave over, you’ve found it in Gluten Free Toll House Skillet Cookie. This recipe is especially good if you have relatives who need to confine themselves to a gluten free diet. But if not, feel free to make the recipe with regular flour and regular sugar. The results will be the same–F-A-N-T-A-S-T-I-C!!
This Gluten Free Toll House Skillet Cookie is awesome indeed!
This is terrific for a company dessert. No one will even realize you’re eating gluten free unless you tell them!
Every bite of Gluten Free Toll House Skillet Cookie will satisfy any sweet tooth craving you have.
Rich, decadent, spectacular, fantastic, heavenly.
Here’s what I did.
I used these ingredients.
Soften butter. Add coconut sugar, eggs, vanilla, sea salt, baking powder and baking soda.
Whisk or cream with an electric mixer until smooth.
Add gluten free flour, part of the miniature chocolate chips and finely diced pecans.
Stir with a wooden spoon to combine.
Grease a 12-inch cast iron skillet. (I used avocado oil). Pat cookie mixture into skillet. (I had to keep my hands moist to do this).
Sprinkle miniature chocolate chips over top.
Bake at 350 for 25-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Serve warm or cooled.
Add ice cream.
Add chocolate sauce.
Cut into 12 pieces and garnish each piece with ice cream and chocolate sauce.
Prepare to drool.
This dessert is terrific for company or holiday dinners like Father’s Day. It’s also wonderful for Memorial Day or Labor Day picnics.
Here the cookie has chocolate sauce over top but not ice cream.
Here’s the recipe.

My family doesn’t care for the coconut sugar so can I use white or brown sugar instead?

Hi Carol, yes you can leave the pecans out. Or you can substitute another nut like almonds if you prefer.

I made this tonight for dessert and it was amazing! Sometimes it’s hard to tell with GF recipes if something will turn out. I was impressed with the consistency of the dough, most GF doughs are sticky. I followed the recipe exactly, except I used regular sugar instead of coconut sugar. Thanks for sharing!

Hi, Carlee. I’m so thrilled that the recipe turned out so wonderfully for you. You’re right. Gluten free recipes are an adventure because of the inconsistency of the different GF flour blends. Thanks so much for letting me know.

This cookie looks fantastic. Just one thing though, almost ALL BlueBell ice cream contains gluten. I know because I LOVE BlueBell, but I had to stop eating it. It was killing my stomach.
