These giant bakery-style chewy pecan toffee cookies are such a decadent treat…you’d never guess they’re actually gluten free!

Every year for Christmas, my husband and I make our family and friends each a box of homemade cookies. This year we kept it simple with two favorites from last year, plus the addition of these gorgeous Pecan Toffee Cookies.

Food gifts are one of our favorite ways to show our extended family and friends we love them, without breaking the bank. Read more tips to have an awesome Christmas on a budget here.  I think everyone has come to expect cookies from us each year!

Bakery Style Pecan Toffee Cookies

Last year our family raved about our Potato Chip Chocolate Chip Cookies, which are the unexpectedly perfect combination of sweet and salty. So of course we had to include them in this year’s box too!

We also made chocolate covered peanut butter Ritz crackers, one of our long-time family favorites (my Granny made them every year at Christmas-time). This is an easy recipe that my girls like to help with – we make these throughout the year and decorate for each holiday (spiderwebs for Halloween, red & green sprinkles for Christmas, etc).

The new addition to our gift tins this year were these chewy Pecan Toffee Cookies, and they were an instant hit! In fact, I think they claimed the top spot as the new favorite cookie!

The cookie is a rich, chewy gluten free recipe (similar to what we did for our potato chip cookies), but with brown sugar only (instead of a mix) for extra depth of flavor. Then we topped them with crunchy pecans, caramel chips, and Heath milk chocolate toffee bits – because everything is better with a little chocolate!

I love how they turn out just like big, bakery style cookies! You know, those ones that are almost as big as your face:

PS- Our Pecan Toffee Cookies are gluten free and lactose free, so they don’t fill you up like regular cookies! But they taste so amazing that no one will ever know the secret if you don’t tell them!

    I’m reading your gluten free bakery style pecan cookie recipe. I’ve read it several times and cant seem to find where the rice flour comes in. Am I just not seeing it?

      Hi MJ – It looks like when I created the printable recipe card, a step was accidentally deleted. The brown rice flour is the last thing you add to the batter, before you scoop it onto the baking sheet. Apologies for the confusion and thank you for letting me know! I’ve updated the recipe.
