Deep, Dark, Seriously Fudgy Chocolate Cookies

Okay. Here's the deal. These look amazing, right?


Would you ever guess they're gluten AND dairy free?!


Yup.


I made these for my mom and my little brother, who are both gluten and dairy intolerant.....I try to make things that are gf/df every so often, just cause it's good to be well rounded in the baking department since so many people have so many different preferences and allergies....and I always feel bad for the gf/df people....they should get to live tastely too! (tastely is a word in the baking realm)


But, I just can't even tell you how amazing and amazingly easy these are!

You will die.

They are SO SO chocolaty and melt in your mouth good. They literally melt.in.your.mouth.

Make them, please.
