Organic/natural ingredients taste best.

chockchipcookiesI know, I know, another Chocolate Chip Cookie, BUT this is one of the best!

The Sucanat gives a totally unique depth of satisfying sweet, that has you reaching for more ‘n more ‘n more

… As always, organic is best.

You’ll need:

1-1/4 Cup Sugar – Organic Sucanat™
2/3 Cup Salted Butter softened
1 teaspoon Vanilla
1 Whole Fresh Egg
1 Tablespoon Water
3/4 Cup Unbleached White Flour
3/4 Cup Whole Wheat Pastry Flour
1/2 teaspoon Sea Salt
1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
1 teaspoon organic Nonfat Dry Milk Powder
1/2 Cup Chopped Walnuts
1-1/4 Cup Chocolate Chips (organic of your
choice: chocolate, carob, butterscotch…)

4-5 Cookie Sheets (not nonstick)
Parchment Paper
375 Degree Oven
7-8 Minutes/batch
1 teaspoon to scoop batter

To prepare:

Preheat oven at 375 degrees. Parchment paper for cookies is always much better than greasing the cookie sheet for easier release after baking, and parchment can be reused. So cut a piece to fit your cookie sheet with no need to grease either at all and store cooled sheets with parchment in them for the next time.

In an electric mixer cream butter and Sucanat™ till well mixed. Meanwhile, sift together both flours, salt, baking soda, nonfat milk powder. Put mixer on slower speed and add egg, vanilla, water to creamed butter/sugar mixture one at a time and mix after each addition. Add sifted flour to mixture in 3 additions, mixing after each addition. Add walnuts and chocolate chips and mix for few seconds till just mixed through but not crushing. You can mix by hand to complete it. Drop batter by teaspoonfuls onto papered cookie sheets. Bake in middle of oven for 7-8 minutes until tops start to crack and bottoms slightly tan. Remove from oven and allow to cool on sheets while filling the remaining sheets. Cookies will crisp as they cool making it easier to lift from paper. Enjoy dunking in your favorite glass of or cup of….
