Chocolate Whole Wheat Cookies

Chocolate Whole Wheat Cookies begging to be eaten.

We made these Chocolate Whole Wheat Cookies a few weeks back, but somehow MaMa and I missed posting them.  MaMa blames sleep deprivation, but I keep telling her she can't use that excuse much longer, now that my brother is almost 8 weeks old.  If you're looking for a chocolatey, sweet treat, then these chocolate drizzled cookies will be right up your alley.

Ingredients for Chocolate Whole Wheat Cookies:


1 c unsalted butter, at room temp
1 c sugar
1 c brown sugar
2 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla
2 1/2 c Joseph's Grainery Soft White Whole Wheat Pastry Flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
3/4 c cocoa
1 c chocolate chips

Directions:  Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.  Line your baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.

In the bowl of your mixer, cream together the butter and sugars until smooth.  Add in the eggs,one at a time, and then the vanilla until blended.  Slowly add the dry ingredients and mix until combined.  Using a cookie scoop form tablespoon sized balls of dough, place 2-3 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.  Bake for 8-10 minutes, remove from oven and allow to rest on the baking sheet for 3 minutes before moving to a cooling rack.

Place chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, and melt by microwaving in 30 second increments.  Drizzle over the cookies and allow to harden.
