3.5cupsfreshly milled soft white wheat floursifted
1tspbaking sodasifted
1tspsalt
2cupschocolate chipsI prefer bittersweet or unsweetened
2tspvanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit
Cream butter, brown sugar, and sugar. Beat for about 3-5 minutes until creamy
Add eggs, one at a time
Add vanilla, mix it all together
In a separate bowl, sift 3 1/2 cups of freshly milled soft white wheat flour. You can sift the baking soda with it or separately.
Add salt to the flour and baking soda. Mix together.
Carefully add flour mixture to the creamed butter about a third of the flour at a time. Mix until it's all combined.
Fold in chocolate chips. If desired, set aside some extra to garnish the top.
With an ice cream scoop (about 3TB), scoop dough out onto baking pan lined with parchment paper. Space about 2-3 inches apart.
Bake for 12 - 15 minutes until the bottom of cookies are slightly brown. The tops should look under-baked. For me, 12 minutes was perfect.
Let cookies rest on baking pan about 1-2 minutes. Gently transfer to cooling rack.
Notes
This recipe is a conversion from Natasha's Kitchen Soft, Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe. Thanks for a great recipe to go off of, Natasha!Soft white wheat flour can be substituted with freshly milled spelt flour.TROUBLESHOOTING: If your cookies come out too flat, not enough flour was added. If your cookies come out too domed, too much flour was used.
