Chocolate Chip Cookies (Wheat flour)

Chocolate chip cookies are my kids favorite cookie,its always a big "YES" to this cookie at anytime of the day.Though its lenten time for us,but kids as always are excluded and so adding eggs for them wasn't an issue.These are very easy drop spoonful kind a cookie.Kids really enjoyed the taste of it and I feel very happy seeing them munching these chocolaty cookies.The recipe goes very simple and anyone could try it.The recipe is adapted from here and I have added wheat flour to it as I like replacing wherever possible.Enjoy these yumm cookies with a cup of milk !!!


Ingredients
whole wheat flour 1 1/4 cup
all purpose flour 1 cup
baking soda 1 tsp 
eggs 2
unsalted butter 2 stick (at room temp)
granulated sugar 3/4 cup
light brown sugar 3/4 cup
vanila extract 1 1/2 tsp
chocolate chip;semis sweet  1 1/2 cups
walnuts;coarsely chopped 1 cup
salt 1 tsp


Method
  • In a bowl,add all the dry ingredients;wheat flour,all purpose flour,baking soda and salt.Mix well/sift twice.
  • In another bowl,add the unsalted butter,brown sugar and granulated sugar.Beat until light and fluffy.Beat in eggs one at a time and until incorporated.Add in vanilla extract,scarpe down the sides.
  • Pre heat oven to 375 degrees F and place the rack in the center of the oven.Line 2 trays with parchment paper.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet batter and mix until incorporated.Add the chocolate chip and chopped nuts halfway through,mix well.
  • For large cookies,drop 2tbsp of batter on the tray and leave a space of 1'' space between each cookie.(as it tends to spread)

  • Bake for about 10-14 mins until the sides are golden brown(I finished at 11 mins).Cool on wire rack and store in air tight container for several days.



Servings ~  3 dozen large sized / 4 dozen medium sized

NOTES
* You can use chopped pecans too instead of walnuts.
* If the dough turns out very soft,cover & refrigerate for 30mins.
* There is no change in taste even if you use wheat flour.But if you are comforatble then replace the wheat flour with all purpose flour/maida.
