Good Cookies!! You'll be giving out this recipe forever!!! Be sure to leave the cookies on the cookie sheet for at least one minute after removing them from the oven. This allows them to "flatten" and firm up, also make sure you use rolled oats, not instant! Please don't let all the ingredients scare you away from this recipe.

Chewy Chocolate Chip Granola Bars image

These granola bars pack well for mid-day snacks or hiking trips. Vary the ingredients for variety or to make them more wholesome. I make two versions--this one if for my sweet-tooth husband--the other for myself, contains 1 c. dried fruit and nuts instead of chocolate chips and marshmallows. Be creative!

JUMBO WHEAT GERM CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Jumbo Wheat Germ Chocolate Chip Cookies image

Wheat Germ Chocolate Chip Cookies are thick and hearty chocolate chip cookies. They should have crispy edges and firm (not soft) texture. I don't recommend leaving out the coconut because it adds a lot of flavor and helps the cookies spread less.

Provided by Cookie Madness

Categories     Dessert

Time 28m

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 cup unsifted all-purpose flour (105 grams)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 stick (4 ounces unsalted butter, room temperature)
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup sugar (98 grams)
1/3 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar (75 grams)
1 large or extra-large egg (50 grams)
1/4 cup quick cooking oats (20 grams)
3/4 cup wheat germ (untoasted (80 grams))
2/3 cup shredded unsweetened coconut (50 grams)
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup finely chopped and toasted pecans (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line one or two rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Miix or sift together the flour, baking powder and salt and set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attached, beat the butter until creamy. Add the vanilla and both sugars and beat until creamy, scraping bowl occasionally. Add the egg and beat just until incorporated. Reduce speed to low and add the flour mixture, then add the oats, wheat germ and coconut and stir until mixed. Add the chocolate chips and nuts (if using)
  • The batter should be pretty thick and fairly easy to work with. Scrape it onto a big sheet of wax paper to or parchment and divide into 9 sections of about 3 ounces each. You can do this using a ¼ cup measuring cup or just a big spoon, scale and slightly dampened fingers.
  • Arrange 5 cookies on one sheet and 4 on the other if using two sheets. Using a fork, press into ½ inch thick rounds.
  • Bake one sheet at a time in the top center of oven for 18 minutes or until the cookies are appear set and spring back when touched. Let sit on the baking sheet until firm enough to lift, then transfer to a cooling rack and let cool completely. Make sure they are on a rack with plenty of air circulating above and below.
  • When the cookies cool, they should have crunchy edges and dense but not quite hard centers. I like throwing the cookies in the freezer for a while because it makes them more solid. It's also a good place to store cookies in general.

Look in my cookbooks I guess :) This is modified from one in the "More With Less" cookbook. I used 5 medium egg whites because I have a lot of medium eggs.
