It’s hard not to feel like a kid again when biting into a crisp chocolate chip cookie. The butteriness of the cookie, the softness of the chocolate, even the sound of the crunch all have a tendency to take one back to a simpler time. Our tasting panel certainly found that to be true of Trader Joe’s Gluten Free Crispy & Crunchy Chocolate Chip Cookies, every bite of which offer all the time-transporting tastes and textures you could want in a classic chocolate cookie—and all without the inclusion of any gluten.

There used to be a time when folks felt the need to qualify gluten-free foods as being “good...for gluten free.” Nowadays, though, gluten free alternatives have made such strides that it practically goes without saying: these Chocolate Chip Cookies aren’t just good for gluten free—they’re good, period! And especially so when packed in school lunches, enjoyed as an afternoon snack, or used to make creamy ice cream sandwiches. We recommend pairing a Cookie or two with a glass of ice-cold milk, or your favorite non-dairy beverage, to truly maximize that like-a-kid-again feeling.
