Ingredients
- 1 cup white flour
- 2¾ cup whole wheat flour
- 1½ tsp cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon allspice
- ½ teaspoon cloves
- ½ teaspoon nutmeg
- 2 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ cup butter, softened
- 3 eggs
- 1 tablespoon vanilla
- 1¼ cup packed brown sugar
- 2 cups applesauce
- 12 oz bag semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375° and prepare cookie sheets by lining them with a baking mat, parchment paper, or greasing them.
- In your mixer (or a large bowl), combine the butter, eggs, vanilla and brown sugar. Mix for 2-3 minutes. Set aside.
- In a separate large bowl, combine both flours, cinnamon, allspice, cloves, baking powder, nutmeg, baking soda and baking powder.
- Alternate adding 1 cup of flour mixture and 1 cup of applesauce to your butter/sugar mixture, until everything is completely combined. Mix in chocolate chips. Dough will be very wet, unlike most cookie dough. It will be more like the consistency of brownie batter.
- Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough onto your prepared cookie sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie. These cookies expand as they bake. Bake cookies at 370° for 10 mins. The edges will be slightly brown.
