Gluten-Free and Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies

Another attempt to make decent gluten-free baked goods. These were good. They had a bit of texture and nuttiness to them and were a bit soft. They would never replace my chocolate chip cookies, but they are pretty good. I made the vegan version (so that my vegan sister could eat them). There is also a version that uses butter if you are so inclined.

can you see the little almond bits?
