Total Time
 
Yield: 3 dozen cookies
Ingredients
  • 1 cups all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup canola oil
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 egg
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 8 ounces dark chocolate, chopped
Instructions
  1. In a small bowl, combine flours, baking powder and soda, and salt; set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, beat the canola oil and brown sugar until light and fluffy, then beat in the egg, honey and vanilla. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and combine, adding in your chocolate chunks once a dough has started to form. Refrigerate the dough for 15 minutes or until chilled.
  3. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F; grease your cookie sheet(s) or line with parchment paper. Form tablespoon-sized cookie dough balls and place on your cookie sheet about two inches apart.
  4. Bake for 8 - 10 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool slightly on cookie sheet, then transfer to wire racks.
Notes / Variations
The original recipe called for a stick of butter instead of canola oil. I prefer to use canola oil in my baking when possible, as I've found that it makes the cookies more plump and less flat. However, feel free to use butter if you prefer!
Also, in place of (or in addition to) the dark chocolate chunks, feel free to use whatever type of chocolate chip you have on hand - or even substitute nuts or bits of candy.
