1 3/4cupwhole wheat flourI used freshly ground hard white wheat
1/2teaspoonkosher salt
1/2teaspoonbaking powder
1/4teaspoonbaking soda
1teaspoonarrowroot powdercornstarch works too (this contributes to the soft and chewy texture of this cookie)
1cupsemi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. In a mixing bowl, beat the butter until it is smooth. Add the sugars and beat for at least 3-4 minutes, until the mixture is light and almost fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla and beat until combined.
In a separate bowl, sift together the dry ingredients. Slowly add to the wet ingredients and stir until well combined. Add the chocolate chips and stir to combine.
Using a small or medium size scoop, place the dough on a large baking sheet lined with a silpat mat. Bake for 8 minutes, until just barely browned at the edges. Remove from the oven and let the still soft cookies cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes before transferring them to a wire cooling rack. Enjoy!
