Notes
Make sure ingredients are at room temperature.
Measure by weight where weight is given.
Sifting the flour, especially this oat flour, is important to ensure a super smooth and soft cookie.
Dark chocolate or semi-sweet chocolate chips can be used.
The refrigeration time is recommended so the butter firms up before baking. Otherwise the cookies may spread way too much.
The Enjoy Life brand of chocolate chips were used in the recipe.
Use packaged oat flour, this brand is certified gluten free, or ground your own at home.
