Description

Chocolate chip cookies made more healthy and seriously moist by the addition of zucchini.

Ingredients

  • ½ cups Butter, Softened
  • ½ cups Brown Sugar
  • ⅓ cups Honey
  • 1 whole Egg, Beaten
  • 1 Tablespoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 cup White Flour
  • 1 cup Whole Wheat Flour
  • ½ teaspoons Baking Soda
  • ¼ teaspoons Salt
  • ¼ teaspoons Cinnamon, Heaping
  • ¼ teaspoons Nutmeg, Heaping
  • 1 cup Zucchini, Shredded, Heaping
  • 12 ounces, weight Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350ºF.

Beat butter in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until smooth and creamy, about 3 minutes. Add brown sugar and honey, beat 2 more minutes. Add egg and vanilla. Beat until combined, scraping down sides of the bowl if necessary.

Add flours, baking soda, salt and spices. Blend the dry ingredients into the liquid mixture. Add zucchini and chips and gently fold them in. Refrigerate dough for 30 minutes.

Drop tablespoonfuls of the dough onto a greased baking sheet spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake at 350ºF for 10 minutes. Place dough in refrigerator between batches.

Delicious! Made with coconut oil instead of butter and left out the nutmeg, but that was all I did differently. Love the use of whole wheat flour, honey, and zucchini! Great cookie recipe!
