Notes

Recipe Tips

  1. The dough in this recipe will appear wet. No worries. The final baked cookie will have a crisp outside and a tender inside.
  2. Keep a close watch on these cookies. Whole wheat flour browns faster than all-purpose flour.
  3. Prefer to leave out the chips? Substitute chopped dried fruit such as apricots or golden raisins.
