gluten_freeThe first time I saw Trader Joe's Gluten Free Chocolate Chunk Cookies through the little plastic window of their cardboard box, I was unimpressed. They looked lumpy, dry, and tasteless. But I'll try anything GF once, so I bought them anyway. To my surprise, they were delicious. Tender but chewy, not too sweet, with good chocolate and a sprinkle of coarse sea salt on top. They're the best GF chocolate chip cookies I've gotten from a grocery store.
But. These have a "best by" date on the box. Take it seriously. Get the box that has the furthest out date you can, and eat them as soon as you buy them or freeze them, because they will get stale, even in their plastic sleeves, and be as dry and joyless as I first suspected. You get six cookies per box, with three per sleeve. I find one (maybe one and a half) is a perfect serving.
