Ingredients

- Gluten-Free Flour: I prefer King Arthur 1:1 gluten-free flour. I find it gives my cookies the best texture.

Flavor Variations
- Dairy-Free: Use plant butter for gluten and dairy-free cookies.
- Traditional Ingredients: You can use regular flour and Oreos if you don't have gluten issues.
- M&Ms: Use regular or seasonal M&Ms to make cookies for any occasion.
- Oreos: Change the flavor of the cookies by using different Oreos.

How to Make Gluten Free Oreo Cookies
1: Whisk the dry ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
2: Beat the butter and sugars in a stand mixer until creamy. Then, add the egg and vanilla and beat again until combined.

3: Slowly mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Then, gently fold in the crushed Oreos, chocolate chips, and M&Ms with a rubber spatula.

4: Use a 2-inch cookie scoop to place the cookie dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving enough room for the cookies to spread. Then, add additional M&Ms or crushed Oreos if you desire.
5: Bake the cookies until the edges just begin to turn light brown. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Hint
Be sure your butter is only room temperature and not warm. If your butter is warm, the cookies will become flat.
Storage
Store these cookies in an air-tight container for up to 10 days. For longer storage, freeze them in an air-tight, freezer-safe container or heavy-duty freezer bag with as much air removed as possible for up to 3 months.
Bring the cookies to room temperature on the counter before serving.
What to Serve with Oreo Gluten Free Cookies
Serve these cookies as a dessert or snack with a glass of milk for the kids or a cup of coffee or tea for the grownups.
You can also serve them alongside other sweet Valentine's Day treats at parties and get-togethers. Recipes like Valentine's Day Sprinkle Cookies, chocolate strawberry cupcakes, and a strawberry vanilla Valentines margarita are all great options.

Tips for the Best Valentine Oreo Cookies
- For perfectly rounded cookies, place a coffee mug over the top of the cookies as soon as you remove them from the oven and rotate around them in a swirling motion for about 5 seconds.
- Make sure your butter is room temperature and not warm to prevent excess spread as the cookies bake.
- I recommend using King Arthur 1:1 gluten-free baking flour for cookies with the best texture and no grainy feel.
- Be sure to remove the cookies as soon as the edges turn golden while the centers are still slightly unbaked. Carryover baking time will finish them to perfection.

FAQ
The amount of cornstarch or flour used is the usual culprit for hard cookies that don't spread. It's best to weigh your flour in grams if possible because a cup of flour can vary in weight by the manufacturer.
For example, King Arthur 1:1 gluten-free flour weighs 120 grams per cup, while Bob's Red Mill 1:1 gluten-free flour weighs 150 grams per cup.
To get the most accurate measurement without a scale, loosely spoon your flour into your measuring cup and level it off with a knife. Never scoop the flour out directly with the measuring cup. This compacts the flour, and you'll use too much.
Yes, you can! Simply use the same amount of dairy-free butter as regular butter in the recipe.
Absolutely. I use a 1:1 gluten-free flour, so just replace it with the same amount of regular flour instead.
