Inspired by my sis, I decided to post "how to" something we love! And I mean LOVE! These have become a fast fav around here! Even dad, a picky cookie eater l-o-v-e-s these cookies!
Flax Chocolate Chip Cookies
1 cup butter
1 cup sucanat w/honey
1 cup sucanat (I use just 2 cups of sucanat)
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 1/5 cup fresh soft white wheat flour (if I don't feel like grinding, which is alot! =) I just use unbleached all purpose. Works the same just a lower nutrition value)
1/2 cup flax seed
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cup coconut
2 cups chocolate chips
I am not a huge fan of chocolate...ok, I don't like the stuff. We used many different things and I think I finally found "the one!" They are PERFECT! They stay to themselves and if I am having a particularily detest to chocolate day I can pick them out. BUT, they stay pretty much to themselves and I love what they add without over taking!
Cream butter and sucanat and sucanat with honey into a grainy paste. Add eggs and vanilla and beat well. Mix dry ingrediants and stir into creamy mixture. Add coconut and chocolate chips.
**WARNING** this dough is EXTREAMLY thick. It does not just blend and stir together like it says. I'm just saying.
With my FAVORITE unitasker make some 1" cookies.
Bake at 350 for 10 minutes. At this size it took more like 15-17 minutes. Catch them when they are golden that way they are not crackers later!
Enjoy!
Love it! Great pics-almost like I can taste them, oh wait I can- I'm eating one now!
