Double Chocolate Agave Whole Wheat Cookies Recipes

WHOLE WHEAT CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Cream butter, white sugar, and brown sugar together in a large bowl until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla extract and mix until light and fluffy. Add whole wheat flour, baking soda, and salt and mix. Stir in chocolate chips and walnuts to make a very crumbly dough. Use hands and spoon to press and compact dough.
• Form dough into approximately 3 dozen 1 1/2-inch balls and place on a baking sheet. Press down slightly to flatten.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 12 minutes. Allow to cool before removing from the baking sheet.

DOUBLE CHOCOLATE AGAVE WHOLE WHEAT COOKIES

Steps:

• Mix softened butter and agave until completely mixed together, no chunks of butter should be left.
• Add in vanilla and egg whites and mix again until all mixed together.
• Then add in whole wheat flour, baking soda, salt and cocoa powder, mix slowly at first and then mix on med-high until all mixed together.
• Then hand stir in chips.
• Next, on a cookie sheet spoon out about a tablespoon of cookie mix and drop on pan. (I use the pampered chef tablespoon scoop that works great). Don't mash them down just leave them in a ball.
• Cook them in a preheated oven at 375 degrees for 7 MINUTES only. Do not overcook. As soon as you take them out of the oven, take a small spatula and flatten them to about 1/2" thick. This helps get rid of the cakiness of the cookie and gives them more of a cookie texture.
• They are awesome if you put them in the fridge before you eat them. Store in an airtight container in the fridge.

SHREDDED WHEAT COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees, and lightly grease a large baking sheet or two.
• Combine the shredded wheat and 1/2 cup of the chocolate chips in the food processor. Blend until it is finely ground.
• Cream together the butter and the two sugars in a very large bowl.
• Beat in the eggs and vanilla.
• Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
• Stir in the shredded wheat mixture.
• Add the remaining chocolate chips. Feel free to experiment with adding other things like white chocolate or dark chocolate chips, nuts, M&M's, toffee pieces, anything you like.
• Drop by flat tablespoons onto the lightly greased baking sheets and pop them into the oven.
• Check them after 8 minutes or so. Depending on the pan you use, they could be done or it could take as much as 12-15 minutes.
• Pull them out when the edges are slightly browned and the middle looks soft and squishy, but isn't doughy.
• Make sure you cool them completely before packing in an airtight container. When they are suitable to pack, they can stay at room temperature for awhile.
