“WHAT???”<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Whole Wheat Chocolate Chip Cookies<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

“Eeewwww….doesn’t that defeat the purpose of chocolate chip cookies? Sinful bliss?”<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Well, does it HAVE to be so sinful? <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Okay, a little truth time here. I had everything to make chocolate chip cookies for the family, you know, that recipe on the back of the bag of the 12 oz. Nestle Chocolate Chips<\/a>.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Except for white flour. I go through about 5 lbs. of all purpose flour per month on all the assorted things I make for the family: pancakes, waffles, cake, pie crusts, rolls, biscuits, etc.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

But I had plenty of Whole Wheat Pastry Flour<\/a>, which has a similar gluten content to all-purpose flour and can be used nearly interchangably.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

So in this case, I made a Betty Crocker Whole Wheat Chocolate Chip Cookie<\/a> recipe. <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

And my kids didn’t know any better — happy faces all around. With 1g of fiber per cookie to boot!<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
