"You Got Peanut Butter in My Chocolate" Cookies

The original recipe called for all purpose flour or barley flour. I made it gluten free using rice flour

1/4 cup unrefined sugar
1/4 cup dark chocolate chips
1/4 tsp sea salt
3/4 cup white rice flour
3 tbsp cocoa powder
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 cup maple syrup (I use honey)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup canola oil
1/4-1/3 cup peanut butter or almond butter

1. In a bowl combine sugar, chocolate chips, and salt (I put in my kitchen aid mixer)
2. Stir in rice flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and stir until well combined (add this to my mixer)
3. In a separate bowl, combine the maple strip, vanilla, canola oil, then add to the above mixture and mix until well combined.
4. Add the peanut butter, about a tablespoon at a time, so it swirls in with the chocolate
5. Scoop 1-2 tablespoons of the cookie mixture onto parchment lined baking sheet or silpat
6. Bake for 10-11 minutes at 350
7. Let cool before eating so the cookie does not break apart
