CHUNKY BREAKFAST COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, cream butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and egg yolk. In another bowl, mix oats, flours, baking soda and salt; gradually beat into creamed mixture. Stir in remaining ingredients., Shape 1/4 cupfuls of dough into balls; flatten to 3/4-in. thickness. Place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets., Bake 13-15 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on pans 2 minutes. Remove to wire racks to cool. Serve warm or at room temperature. To reheat, microwave each cookie on high for 15-20 seconds or just until warmed. Freeze option: Freeze unbaked cookies in a freezer container, separating layers with waxed paper. To use, place dough portions 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets; let stand at room temperature 30 minutes before baking. Bake as directed, increasing time by 1-2 minutes.

CHOCOLATE CHUNK COOKIES

Steps:

• In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the butter and both sugars for 3 minutes, or until light, fluffy, and cafe au lait-colored (use high speed on a hand mixer and medium speed on a stand mixer). Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as necessary. Add the vanilla and eggs and beat for 2 minutes more. Scrape down the bowl. Add the salt and baking soda and beat briefly until evenly combined. Add the flour and both chocolates, and mix on low speed until the flour is completely blended and the chocolate is evenly distributed throughout the dough.
• Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or scrape the dough into an airtight container and let rest in the refrigerator until firm, a few hours. (Alternatively, if you don't want to wait, form the dough into balls on the baking sheet as instructed below and chill in the fridge until firm, about 30 minutes.)
• Preheat the oven to 350°F and set a rack in the middle position. Line a 13 x 18-inch baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Drop the dough in firmly packed 1.5-tablespoon balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. (I use a #40/1.5-T cookie scoop with a wire trigger.) Bake for 11 to 13 minutes, until golden around the edges but still soft and pale in the center. Let cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with remaining cookie dough. The cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
• Note: Some readers have had issues with the cookies being flat. This can happen as a result of using a "softer" flour. I highly recommend King Arthur All Purpose Flour for this recipe -- it's high in protein and gluten, and helps cookies hold their shape.
• Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The cookie dough can be frozen for up to 3 months. Roll the dough into balls, let set on a baking sheet in the freezer, then place in a sealable bag and press out as much air as possible. Bake as needed directly from the freezer. (Allow 1 to 2 minutes longer in the oven.) The baked cookies can also be frozen for up to 3 months. Let the cookies cool completely and store in an airtight container separating layers with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Before serving, remove the cookies from the container and let them come to room temperature.

CHOCOLATE CHUNK COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Cream the butter and two sugars until light and fluffy in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Add the vanilla, then the eggs, one at a time, and mix well. Sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt and add to the butter with the mixer on low speed, mixing only until combined. Fold in the walnuts and chocolate chunks.
• Drop the dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, using a 1 3/4-inch-diameter ice cream scoop or a rounded tablespoon. Dampen your hands and flatten the dough slightly. Bake for exactly 15 minutes (the cookies will seem underdone). Remove from the oven and let cool slightly on the pan, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

SUPER CHUNKY COOKIES

Steps:

• Position one rack in the top and another in the bottom third of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a medium bowl, using a wire whisk, stir together the flour, baking soda and salt until thoroughly blended.
• In a medium size bowl, beat the butter for 30 seconds at medium speed until creamy. Add the sugars and continue beating for another 3 to 4 minutes, until the mixture is light in texture and color. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla.
• At low speed, beat in the flour mixture a third at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl after each addition. Using a wooden spoon, stir in all of the chocolate chips, bittersweet chocolate and white chocolate. Stir in pecans and toffee bits. The dough will be very stiff.
• Drop the dough by slightly rounded tablespoonfuls onto 2 ungreased baking sheets, leaving about 1 1/2 inches between the cookies. Refrigerate the remaining dough. Bake the cookies for 11 to 13 minutes, or until the cookies are set and the edges are lightly browned; switch the positions of the baking sheets halfway through baking time for even browning.
• Cool the cookies on the baking sheets on wire racks for 1 to 3 minutes. Using a metal spatula, transfer the cookies to wire racks to cool completely. Repeat with the remaining dough.

CHUNKY MONKEY VEGAN BREAKFAST COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
• Whisk together the flaxseed meal and water, and set aside.
• Beat together peanut butter, syrup, banana and vanilla in a large bowl. Add flax egg and mix to combine.
• Pour in oats, quinoa flakes, baking powder, spices and salt to the bowl and stir together. Fold in chocolate chips, walnuts, dates and chia seeds.
• Drop 2 tablespoons of dough onto the baking sheet and repeat until no dough remains.
• Bake cookies on center rack for 15 - 18 minutes until edges are golden brown. Remove and let cool on the pan for 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack and cool completely.
• Enjoy at room temp or slightly reheated in a microwave.

CHUNKY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4. Cream the butter and both types of sugar together in a large bowl until the mixture becomes creamy.
• Add the egg, vanilla extract and chocolate spread into the creamed butter mixture and, using an electric whisk, mix it all together.
• Into another bowl, sift the flour, cocoa powder, salt and baking powder. Mix these together a little, then add this flour mixture into the creamed butter mixture and mix gently with a wooden spoon until the flour is no longer visible but the mixture is still quite lumpy. Add the chocolate chips and stir them in evenly.
• Using two baking trays, spoon 8 heaps of the cookie mixture well spread out over each tray. Bake in the oven for roughly 15 minutes. Remove the trays and leave the cookies in them for a few minutes to set. Once set, move the cookies to a cooling rack and allow to cool completely, or even enjoy them warm!

BREAKFAST COOKIES

Steps:

• *Especially if using banana, you can easily omit the added sweetener entirely for a wholesomely delicious taste that's like eating mini muffins in the form of a cookie. If you'd prefer more of a dessert taste, add extra sweetener as desired, starting with the listed 2 tbsp and going from there - if you want to use a liquid sweetener, just cut back on the banana or applesauce.Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Mash the applesauce or banana with the nut butter until smooth, then stir in all other ingredients until well-combined. Shape into cookies-I used a mini cookie scoop-and bake on a greased cookie sheet for around 15 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes before removing from sheet. This makes 18 mini cookies (as shown in the photos), or 10-12 bigger cookies.View Nutrition Facts
