Whole Wheat Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies that are just as rich and tasty as a regular double chocolate chip cookie. A hearty, yet light chocolate dough studded with a mix of chopped dark chocolate and semisweet chips is definitely a dessert you’ll look forward to.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 sticks salted butter, softened to room temperature
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 2 eggs, room temperature
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 2 3/4 cup whole wheat flour
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 2 cups chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate (or a blend of both!)
  • Sea salt, for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375F. 
  2. In a small mixing bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, salt, baking soda and baking powder. Set aside. 
  3. In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat butter and both sugars until creamy, about 2-3 minutes. 
  4. Add egg and vanilla and beat again until combined. 
  5. Add the dry ingredients and beat (starting on low) until fully combined. 
  6. Stir in chocolate. 
  7. Scoop cookie dough by 1 1/2 tbsp onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Leaving at least 3 inches of space around each cookie. 
  8. Bake for 9-11 minutes. 
  9. If you want to do a cookie scoot for perfectly round cookies, make sure to do it immediately after removing the cookies from the oven. Place a round biscuit cutter over a cookie and scoot the cookie back and forth. Repeat with all cookies. Sprinkle with sea salt.
  10. Allow to cool on baking sheet 10 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
