Warm and gooey whole wheat chocolate chip cookies made with white whole wheat flour for a wholesome twist on a classic treat. Soft, lightly nutty, and easy to prepare.

Ingredients

8 tbsp salted butter, completely softened

2/3 cup light brown sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 egg

1 1/3 cup white whole wheat flour (or golden whole wheat)

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/4 tsp salt

1/2 – 2/3 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. In a large bowl, cream softened butter and brown sugar together until light and fluffy.
  3. Add vanilla extract and egg; mix until just combined.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together white whole wheat flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Combine flour mixture with wet ingredients using a wooden spoon until just mixed; fold in chocolate chips.
  6. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Scoop 12 equal portions of dough onto the sheet. Press dough gently for thinner cookies or leave as is for thicker cookies.
  7. Bake for 8-9 minutes until tops are soft and edges are golden brown. Remove and cool on the baking sheet to set.

Notes

  • Use dark or white chocolate chips for flavor variations.
  • Add 1/2 cup chopped nuts for extra crunch.
  • Substitute half the brown sugar with granulated sugar for a chewier texture.
  • Add 1/2 tsp cinnamon or a pinch of espresso powder to enhance chocolate flavor.
  • Store in airtight container up to 5 days; place a slice of bread to keep moist.
  • Freeze cookies up to 3 months; reheat before serving.
  • For thicker cookies, do not press dough before baking and use a cookie scoop.
