Whole Wheat Chocolate Chip Cookies - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup light butter, spreadable (I use Land O Lakes)
3/4 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar, packed
1 egg
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
2/3 cup mini chocolate chip
1/2 cup walnuts (optional)

Preparation

Combined the flour, baking soda, and salt and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the tub light butter and sugars and beat until smooth.
Add the egg and vanilla and beat until smooth.
Add the flour mixture and beat until all the flour is combined.
Stir in chocolate chips and walnuts if desired.
Drop the dough, one spoonful at a time onto an ungreased baking sheet (NOTE: I've found refrigerating the dough, especially overnight, makes it much easier to shape and more like store bought cookie dough).
Bake at 350 F for 10 to 15 minutes or until cookies are just browned.
Remove from the sheet to cool.
