Ingredients
  

  • 2 5-ounce bags (283g) gluten-free Pretzel Crisps
  • 1 ½ cups (225g) gluten-free measure-for-measure flour
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ cup (113g) butter
  • ¼ cup (56g) coconut oil
  • 1 cup (213g) brown sugar
  • ½ cup (100g) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Method
 

  1. Process 1 bag of gluten-free Pretzel Crisps into a smooth flour in a food processor. Set aside 20 whole Pretzel Crisps from the remaining bag, then crush the rest into large chunks.
  2. Whisk together the pretzel flour, gluten-free flour, salt, and baking soda in a medium bowl.
  3. Cream together the butter, coconut oil, brown sugar, and granulated sugar in a stand mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Add the eggs and vanilla, mixing until well-combined. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl.
  5. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients with the mixer on low, mixing until well-combined. Stir in the pretzel chunks.
  6. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  7. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  8. Scoop the cookie dough into 3-tablespoon balls and place them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.

Notes

- Don't over-process the pretzel crisps for the chunks; you want distinct pieces for texture.
- Ensure butter and coconut oil are truly at room temperature for a smooth, fluffy creamed mixture.
- For best results, chill the dough for at least 1 hour; this prevents spreading and deepens flavor.
- Store baked cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or freeze dough balls for up to 3 months.
