WHOLE WHEAT CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES


3/4 cup packed brown sugar
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 cup butter, softened
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 egg
2 cups whole wheat flour*
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 pkg (12-oz) chocolate chip cookies
1 cup chopped pecans, optional

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

In a large bowl stir together the brown sugar, granulated sugar, butter, vanilla extract, and egg until well blended. Stir in the flour, baking soda, and salt. This will produce a stiff dough! Stir in the chocolate chips and the pecans, if using. Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls, about 2-inches apart, on ungreased cookie sheets.

Bake at 375 degrees 8 to 10 minutes or until light brown with the centers still soft. Cool slightly before attempting to remove from the cookie sheets. Cool completely on wire racks.

Yield: Approximately 3 dozen cookies.

*Personal note: I prefer using white whole-wheat flour. In fact I use it in all my baking.
