I have been experimenting with whole wheat chocolate chip cookie recipes for a few years. I have finally hit upon what I believe to be the PERFECT cookie recipe by combining ideas from a half a dozen decent recipes. This is more specifically directed at home-grinders. Ingredients:
3/4 cup unsalted butter (soft) |
1/4 cup honey (raw is best) |
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract |
1 cup sucanat (brown sugar will do though not as good) |
1 egg |
1 cup fresh ground soft whole wheat pastry flour |
3/4 cup hard whole wheat flour (bread, can substitute 1 3/4 cup total store bought whole-wheat flour) |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 cup rolled oats (not quick) |
3/4 cup ghirardelli bittersweet chocolate chips |
3/4 cup nestle milk chocolate and caramel swirled morsels |
3/4 cup sliced almonds (optional) |
Directions:
1. Cream together butter, honey, vanilla and Sucanat (brown sugar).
2. Add in egg. Cream well.
3. In a separate bowl, stir together flour(s), salt, baking soda and powder.
4. Slowly add flour mixture to creamed mixture.
5. Add oats, then chocolate chips and almonds (optional).
6. Bake at 350 for approximately 10 minutes. Take them out while still a little bit gooey. Let finish baking outside of oven while cooling on the pan for 5 minutes. Remove from pan once firm.
