Whole Wheat Chocolate Chip Cookies



These cookies are fantastic. My roommate Moreen wanted to bake cookies one night and asked me if Will and I could show her how. I knew just the recipe! Chocolate chip cookies are usually not my favorite (i'm super partial to oatmeal raisin), but these are amazing! And I must say it is due to the whole wheat flour. It adds a richer texture and taste to the cookie and brings out the chocolate taste more, in our opinion. Since they are whole wheat, they are also healthier for you and don't make me feel as quilty about eating a delicious cookie! Will doesn't feel guilty at all. Anywho...here is the recipe!

Whole Wheat Chocolate Chip Cookies (about 3 dozen)

  • 3/4 cup sugar


  • 3/4 cup brown sugar


  • 1 cup butter, melted


  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract


  • 1 egg


  • 2 cups whole wheat flour


  • 1 teaspoon baking soda


  • 1/2 teaspoon salt


  • chocolate chips - as many as you like :)

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.


  2. Mix sugars, butter, vanilla, and egg in a medium bowl.


  3. Mix flour, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.


  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and mix until all the dry ingredients have been moistened.


  5. Stir in the chocolate chips.


  6. Drop by spoonfuls onto a greased baking sheet.


  7. Bake 8-10 minutes. Centers will be soft.


  8. Let cool and enjoy!
