Let's just start this post off by saying that I had a bad chocolate chip cookie baking experience while we were snowed in. I tried baking with whole wheat flour and the cookies were YUCK!! I baked three pans full and only one pan was edible....no idea why. Two pans stucks completely even though the pans were sprayed. The "good" pan were only good for a couple minutes out of the over. After they sat for a while, they were hard as rocks. I was on a mini BIG tirade over those stupid cookies!
I say all of that to say this.....
Richard decided to try his own version of chocolate chip cookies with whole wheat flour and some regular white flour. His were better, but they still weren't very good. Some of his were burnt and his still had the problem of being VERY hard after sitting for a few minutes. I don't know what the problem is, but I suggest sticking with plain ole' white flour if you want to eat good cookies. Otherwise, save your time and energy.
Kamdyn is really in to cooking here lately. We have given her several tasks that she completes all by herself depending on the meal that we are having. She was assisting Richard in measuring the ingredients for the cookies. She's an optimist. She didn't think that cookies were THAT bad. Perhaps it's because she was helping make them. ;) Needless to say, I think our family will be sticking to the slice and bake cookies. They are so much easier and taste a million times better. Forget the fact that they are completely bad for you!!
