Gluten Free Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies

I know, I know, ANOTHER cookie recipe?! Yes, I have a serious love affair with chocolate chip cookies and love making variation after variation.  This Gluten Free Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe has been tried and tested and could pass as the “real deal.”  To spice it up a little bit I added a little bit of cinnamon and it was a GREAT call.
