Heritage Wheat Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350° F.
• Cream together the butter, date sugar, brown rice syrup, and vanilla extract in a mixer or using a spatula by hand in a large bowl .
• In a separate bowl, mix together dry ingredients: flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, salt.
• Add the dry mixture to the butter/sugar mixture and combine well.
• Add the optional chopped pecans should you choose to, stirring until well incorporated. Finally add the chocolate chips.
• Use a cookie scoop (or well rounded teaspoon) to drop dough onto a prepared cookie sheet , allowing about 2" for expansion.
• Bake for 14-15 minutes. Allow cookies to cool for at least 2 minutes before removing them from the cookie sheet (you won't want to wait much longer!). The tiered baker's sheet cooling rack is perfect for this purpose, or you may opt to remove the cookies to a more traditional cooling rack . Either way, enjoy! (with minimal guilt)

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F.
• Mix sugars, butter, vanilla and egg in large bowl. Stir in flour, baking soda and salt (dough will be stiff). Stir in chocolate chips. Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls about 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheet.
• Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until light brown (centers will be soft). Cool slightly; remove from cookie sheet. Cool on wire rack.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Cream butter, white sugar, and brown sugar together in a large bowl until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla extract and mix until light and fluffy. Add whole wheat flour, baking soda, and salt and mix. Stir in chocolate chips and walnuts to make a very crumbly dough. Use hands and spoon to press and compact dough.
• Form dough into approximately 3 dozen 1 1/2-inch balls and place on a baking sheet. Press down slightly to flatten.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 12 minutes. Allow to cool before removing from the baking sheet.

Steps:

• Place 2 racks in upper and lower thirds of oven and preheat to 350 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment. You can butter the sheets instead, but parchment is useful here because the large chunks of chocolate can stick to the pan.
• Sift dry ingredients into a large bowl, pouring back into bowl any remaining bits of grain or other ingredients in sifter.
• Add butter and sugars to bowl of a standing mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. With mixer on low speed, mix until butter and sugars are just blended, about 2 minutes. Use a spatula to scrape down sides of bowl. Add eggs one at a time, mixing until each is combined. Mix in vanilla. Add flour mixture to bowl and blend on low speed until flour is barely combined, about 30 seconds. Scrape down sides and bottom of bowl.
• Add chocolate all at once to batter. Mix on low speed until chocolate is evenly combined. Use a spatula to scrape down sides and bottoms of bowl, then scrape batter onto a work surface and use your hands to fully incorporate all ingredients.
• Scoop mounds of dough about 3 Tbsp. in size onto baking sheet, leaving 3 inches between them, or about 6 to a sheet.
• Bake cookies for 16 to 20 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through, until cookies are evenly dark brown. Transfer cookies, still on parchment, to counter to cool and repeat with remaining dough. These cookies are best eaten warm from oven or later that same day. They will keep in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
