We found a way to make our classic chocolate chunk cookie even better. It’s the same basic recipe except we’ve changed the flour to freshly milled whole Michigan grains. We use a mix of organic soft white wheat berries from Ferris Organic Farms in Eaton Rapids, Michigan and some hard red spring wheat berries from the Leelanau peninsula, mill them ourselves and make our chocolate and walnut studded cookie. You’ll notice a greater depth of flavor – slightly nutty, earthy, a little caramelly and an appealing chewiness. My guess is that you’ll think it’s better than ever but not be certain why. And yes, this is a whole wheat cookie! And yes, it’s delicious, not heavy or bitter as many of us used to think whole grain baking has to be. It tastes better and it’s more nutritious.
