From Victoria Colligan, Founder, Ladies Who Launch
For years I’ve searched for a chocolate chip cookie recipe that combines flavor, texture and chocolate with some nutritional value. I’ve experimented with many recipes, substitutes and whole grains only to be underwhelmed by cardboard results and below average satisfaction. I take my cookie cravings seriously and there’s only so much applesauce puree in lieu of butter and maple syrup in lieu sugar that a girl can take before childhood delight morphs into adult debacle. After years of trying and one cup each of oat and spelt flour respectively later, I think I finally stumbled on healthful perfection. What launcher doesn’t need a little robust decadence, whole grains included, to get through the tough times? See below for a chocolate chip cookie recipe that produces delectables even the kids will gobble up!
Semi-healthy Chocolate Chip Cookies
A little less than 1 cup oat flour
A little less than 1 cup spelt flour
½ cup salted butter (must be salted for best flavor)
1 brown, organic egg
¾ cup dark brown sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1 bag or a little less (to taste) semi sweet chocolate chips
Preheat oven, mix and bake according to Nestle Toll House recipe.
KEY: Under-bake the cookies. Best when served warm. Enjoy!
