Servings: 30 cookies

Ingredients

  • ½ cup unsalted butter room temperature
  • ½ cup vegetable shortening
  • 1 cup brown sugar packed
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2-¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 2-½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line 2 baking sheet pans with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  • Cream together the butter, shortening, sugar, honey, eggs, and vanilla.
  • In a separate bowl, mix the dry ingredients.
  • Slowly stir the dry ingredients into the wet, then stir in the chocolate chips (the dough will be fairly sticky).
  • Use wax paper to roll the dough into two equal logs and freeze them for 1-2 hours. They shouldn’t be frozen solid; the dough should be firmly set but you should still able to cut it easily with a knife.
  • Once the dough is semi-frozen, unwrap the wax paper and cut each log into 15 rounds (each will be about 3/4 inches thick).
  • Line them up 1-2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet pans and bake for 14 minutes, rotating the trays halfway through.
  • They cookies are ready to come out of the oven when they’re light golden but still a touch doughy in the middle. They’ll continue cooking on the baking sheets, even out of the oven.
  • Allow the cookies to cool completely on the baking sheets before removing.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
