Great Harvest Bread Chocolate Chip Cookies


Is this truly their recipe? I do not know. It's probably like the hundreds of different Mrs. Field's recipes that were floating around during the 80's. But, either way, they are good and I don't feel as guilty about making them, since they are made with whole wheat flour :) I like to use those giant milk chocolate chips made by Guittard, but they are good with semi-sweet too. Last time I was at Great Harvest, they had some Butterscotch cookies that I think were the same recipe, just butterscotch chips. They were really good.
Great Harvest Bread Chocolate Chip Cookies

2 cups whole wheat flour
1 tsp. baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ tsp. salt
2 cups brown sugar, packed
1 cup butter, softened
2 cups rolled oats
2 eggs
2 tablespoons molasses
1 T. milk
1 (12 ounce) pkg. chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350°. Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; set aside.

Beat together the brown sugar and butter until well combined. Add oats, eggs, molasses and milk; beat well. Add dry ingredients and beat until well blended. Stir in chocolate chips.

Bake at 350° for 9-11 minutes, until just starting to brown on the outside. Cook 2 minutes on cookie sheets. Remove and cool on wire racks.

  1. Help! Do you grind up your oats or leave them whole? And I couldn't get the cookie off of the tray. Do you use that silicone pad or just really good spray? They were still delicious, just not presentable. :)

  2. Sorry this is not the GH Choc. Chip recipe. It doesn't have enough butter, no milk is in the recipe. and they are baked on parchment.
