Rustic Chocolate Chip Cookies are simple with a unique flavor. The perfect texture and bite. Dip in chocolate if you like too!
Okay, I need to brag a little. It is a bit uncomfortable but … these chocolate chip cookies are really really good! They were so much fun to experiment with and I think I got just the right balance of sweetness.
Coconut sugar is used so there is a mild maple/molasses flavor and the whole wheat flour really balances out the texture.
If you want them cakier than like a crispier cookie then don’t flatten them as much as I did. You control the thickness when flattening onto the cookie sheet.
Just the perfect little bites for that special moment you deserve.
I don’t think they would make it to the freezer in my house so I will have to make a batch and specifically state when they are for company. It might work!
Helpful Tools for Making Rustic Chocolate Chip Cookies:
Baking Sheet – It’s not so pretty anymore but I still love stainless steel!
Mixing Bowls – Good old fashioned glass bowls … used daily!
Cooling Racks – I like the narrower size for storing!
