These Gluten Free Kitchen Sink Cookies are a great dessert to satisfy you cravings no matter what your diet is. It’s hard to believe that these cookies are loaded with semisweet and dark chocolate chips, caramel chips and pretzels but are still safe for a gluten-free diet!
Finding a New Gluten-Free Dessert
One of the hardest parts about practicing a gluten-free diet is finding a great dessert recipes. Luckily, I feel that over the years, food producers have really stepped up the game of providing gluten-free options for lots of ingredients that are useful when making desserts for special diets. Now we have gluten-free flour products and gluten-free bread products. These ingredients can be used for a wide variety of goals, from a gluten-free diet to Keto and Whole30 diets. A couple of months ago, I made these Gluten-Free Red Velvet Cupcakes and they turned out fantastic! But, I’ve got a soft spot for a good cookie, so I thought it was time to share a gluten-free cookie recipe.

These cookies are also commonly referred to as “Everything” But the Kitchen Sink Cookies. This, obviously, means that can be made from just about anything you want them to. These are a great recipe idea if you’ve got a ton of stuff in your pantry or cabinet you’re looking to get rid of. If you are like me, you may have 1/4 of a bag of chocolate chips or some white chocolate chips or a half a bag of pretzels laying around. Basically, any combination of sweet and salty can be thrown into these cookies as an ingredient.
