Wheat Cookies

My daughters love cookies and so I make them every other week. My cookie jar is never empty. Since we eat so many cookies, I prefer making them using Wheat flour instead of All purpose flour. They taste the same. So Why not?

Ingredients:

3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 cup butter, softened
1 tsp vanilla essence
1 egg
2 cups Whole Wheat flour
1 tsp Baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
2 cups nuts - chocolate chips, Almonds, pistas

Makes abut 36 cookies

Method:

1. Mix sugars, butter, vanilla essence and egg in large bowl. I use a stand mixer.

2. Stir in flour, baking soda and salt. Batter will be stiff.

3. Stir in nuts.

4. Make 1 inch balls of the dough, flatten them a little and place them 1 inch apart on a greased cookie sheet.

5. Bake at 375 F for about 8 to 10 minutes or until light brown. Don't overcook as the bottoms will burn.

6. Cool slightly and remove from cookie sheet. Store in an air tight container.
