talk to her.
tell her your door is always open, that you will always love her (regardless of what she does) because you will always be her mother.
Tell her you miss her and that your house will always be her home no matter how old she is.
Then leave it up to her - you can't force her. She is now at the age where she feels if she backs down she will be loosing face (if there was any particular reason/row that broke the camels back and resulted in her leaving you could also try and resolve that) but leaving the door open for her to come back in her own time knowing that you love and miss her will help alot.

Tell her you understand her wanting to be independant. You will love her wherever she is. That you miss her being with you to talk about girly things, and that she is welcome to stay with you again if she should decide in the future.
The important parts here are:
"Understanding her wanting to be independant". It's a no win sentence. If she rebels against that she is admitting she is dependant.
"you love her wherever she is". She will interpret this as loving her for who she is. Another independant thing.
"You miss her". That's obvious. "talk about girly things". Can only really be done with another female, and most girls do that with their mother.
"She is welcome to stay with you again". That's avoiding saying "coming home".
Most importantly "if she should decide". You are allowing the decision to be hers with no conditions.

Talk to her. Ask her what she wants. Why did she leave in the first place. I think you could use a mediator, someone who knows the right questions to ask.

Do you have joint custody? Make her. Being mad is no reason to be mean to mama.
If not, then you might have some patching up to do.

You give her space, do not pressure her & she will finally realise where she is best off.
