Everyone has been devouring these Triple Chocolate Chip Cookies. They’re so incredible that none of our friends can tell they’re gluten-free! Loaded with 3 types of chocolate, this chocolatey cookie base is studded with dark chocolate, milk chocolate, and white chocolate. Yes, this is an all chocolate, all the time cookie for chocolate lovers everywhere!
This gluten-free cookie (also egg-free) is one of the most decadent desserts that I’ve ever created. I went wild with it! My husband liked these cookies so much that he asked me to make a batch for a business associate. Don’t be put off though, like everything I make, this is a no-fuss recipe that can be thrown together in just a few minutes.
If you are looking for super healthy gluten-free cookies, leave the white and milk chocolate chips out of this recipe, which will cut out most of the sugar. You’ll still end up with something close to chocolate heaven, i.e., a dark chocolate cookie featuring dark chocolate chips. Or if you’re not in the mood to tinker, try my Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies recipe.

Technically, this is not a paleo cookie. It is not even a primal cookie. It is a special occasion cookie. I love serving these gluten-free chocolate cookies at our Super Bowl party. They’re also the perfect Valentine’s Day dessert, and make a fabulous gluten-free Christmas cookie.
I made these cookies live for FOX 31 in Denver on the Colorado “Everyday” Show. You can watch below:

Hello Elana!
I hope you’re doing well. What kind of brand of white chocolate chips you’re using? Are you using just the regular white chocolate chips, white chocolate chips has a lot of sugar, or all natural organic nonGMO? I just wanted to know what the percent of the white chocolate chips is it. Please reply. Thanks.

Hi Dylan, thanks for your comment! If you click the highlighted text in the ingredients portion of the recipe that says “white chocolate chips” you will be taken to the ones I use :-)
Bo says
I have quite a bit of coconut flour, do you think I half and half would be okay, like a cup and a half of almond flour and a cup coconut. I’m just slightly skeptical on the grainy texture of the coconut flour in the cookie. Think it would add a different taste which would most likely be complimentary for coconut lovers but do you think texture would be compromised?
Elana says
Bo, here’s some information on the differences between almond flour and coconut flour:

Claire says
Hi Elana, these look amazing! Just wondering what I might be able to substitute palm shortening with? I’m in Australia and don’t believe I’ve seen it around? Many thanks, Claire
Elana says
Claire, I haven’t tried that so not sure. If you do experiment please let us know how it goes :-)
