Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
In a large bowl, combine ¼ cup of carob powder, ¼ cup of rice flour, ¼ cup of potato flour, ½ cup of white sugar
In a separate medium bowl, beat together ⅜ cup of butter or margarine with one large whole egg with a hand mixer or a stand mixer with the paddle attachment.
Gradually add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients, beating until smooth.
Stir in the gluten-free semi-sweet chocolate chips with a wooden spoon.
Pinch off small amounts of dough and use hands or a cookie scoop to form small balls.
Place the dough balls on a greased cookie sheet.
Press a fork in a criss-cross shape on top of each dough ball using the tines.
Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool before serving.

Ensure all your ingredients are at room temperature to help them mix together more easily, especially the butter and egg.
Always sift your dry ingredients to prevent lumps and ensure a smooth batter, which will improve the texture of your cookies.
Don’t overmix the dough; mix just until the dry ingredients are well incorporated with the wet ingredients. Overmixing can lead to tough cookies.
Use a cookie scoop for even-sized cookies. This helps all the cookies to bake evenly and finish at the same time.
Leave enough space between each cookie dough ball on the baking sheet. They will spread as they bake; you don’t want them to merge into one giant cookie.
Check the cookies at the minimum baking time to prevent overbaking. They should be just golden around the edges but still soft in the middle.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. This helps them set and makes them easier to move without breaking.
