THE. Best. Whole Wheat Chocolate chip cookie. EVER.
May 15, 2009 > 4 Comments
I am happy to announce that I have found the recipe for the perfect whole wheat chocolate chip cookie. I’ve made these cookies many times now…ahem…we’ll not go there.
I served these for dessert to our Preacher who would not eat a crumb of anything whole wheat. I waited until he had devoured many and declared them the best darn cookies he’d ever had before telling him they were 100% whole wheat cookies. Well, ok, he didn’t say darn, but he DID say they were the best he’d had in like, forever!
Introducing THE. Best. Whole Wheat Chocolate chip cookie. EVER.
· ¾ cup sugar (sucanat, Florida Crystals or your choice of sugar J )
· ¾ cup packed brown sugar (or you could do like I do and use the same sugar)
· 1 cup butter
· 1 egg
· 1 teaspoon vanilla
· 2 cups whole wheat flour (I ground my flour on the pastry setting and it DOES make a difference)
· ½ teaspoon salt
· 1 teaspoon baking soda
· 1 cup milk chocolate chips
· 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 375○
Mix the 1st 5 ingredients with a mixer.
Slowly add flour, salt, b soda.
Stir in chocolate chips.
Drop by rounded Tbls onto an ungreased cookie sheet bake 9 minutes until light brown. Remove from cookie sheet to cool.
Pour glass of milk.
Quietly eat a warm cookie (or 2) before calling the rest of the family into the kitchen.
Wipe your mouth to destroy the evidence.

Ha! That last part about destroying the evidence…too funny. At my place it’s near impossible to eat anything without kids swarming around like buzzards wanting to mooch. I usually hide out in the dining room with the lights turned out…

Have you ever tried this with sprouted whole wheat flour? I think I’ll give it a shot, I’m sure it will have a bit nuttier flavor, but I’ll bet it will still be yummy and will give it even more of a nutritional kick.
Thanks!

this looks waaaay good! i have a question though, does the flour need to be ground? i’m sort of confused, if i buy the whole wheat flour in the bag, isn’t all ready to use for baking? i’m not to familiar with it yet, but i’m trying to cook and bake healthier.
