Dessert: Whole Wheat Chocolate Chip Cookies

What do you do when you have to provide cookies and only have whole wheat flour? Find a recipe for chocolate chip cookies that uses only whole wheat flour. At some point several years ago, I was to provide cookies for a child's class and I found this recipe somewhere on the internet.

Ingredients:

3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup butter or margarine, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 egg
2 cups whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 pkg (12 oz) semisweet chocolate chips (2 cups) (using mini-chips is even better!)

Directions:

1. Heat oven to 375^o.  
2. Mix sugars, butter, vanilla, and egg in large bowl.  Stir in flour, baking soda and salt (dough will be stiff).  Stir in chocolate chip cookies.  
3. Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls about 2” apart onto ungreased cookie sheet.  
4. Bake 8-10 min or until light brown (centers will be soft.) 
5. Cool slightly; remove from cookie sheet.  Cool on wire rack.
