Diabolical Double Chocolate Chip Cookies


"I'm in love! I'm in love! And I don't care who knows it!" -- Buddy the Elf

or

"Oh, that looks sinful!" -- Strongbad

These cookies will make you exclaim at least one of the above quotes. It's almost a guarantee.

Diabolical Double Chocolate Chip Cookies

1/2 Cup Bulgar flour
3/4 Cup Whole wheat flour, spelt, or kamut
*(If you don't have bulgar, simply use 1 1/4 cup wheat, spelt, or kamut)
1/2-3/4 Cup Rapadura, sucanat, (or I've heard you can use date sugar. I've never tried it personally)
1/4 tsp. Salt
1/2 tsp. Baking Soda
1/4 Cup oats (optional)
1 Sparse handful nutritional yeast (Optional, but preferred)
1 tsp. Vanilla
1 Egg
1/8-1/4 Cup butter, or coconut oil (you can even do half and half)
1 Bag dark Chocolate Chips separated into equal halves (I use Ghirardelli's 60% dark chips)

  1. Begin by melting half of the chocolate chips in a double boiler. (If you don't have a double boiler you can make your own by simply using glass bowl dipped into a sauce pan of simmering water. Experts say never to let the glass bowl touch the bottom of the pan. I'll be honest, I've made these cookies a lot... I've never seen an adverse reaction to the bowl touch the bottom of the pan.) When melted, set the chocolate aside to cool a little.
  2. Mix together the flour(s), rapadura, salt, baking soda, oats if you are using them, and nutritional yeast.
  3. Mix in butter or coconut oil. Your mixture will be a little chunky at this point.
  4. Mix in the melted chocolate. This will smooth out your dough.
  5. When mixed thoroughly add the egg, and vanilla.
  6. Add chocolate chips.
  7. Eat some dough... I mean bake your cookies at 350 for about 10 mintues!
This recipe doesn't make a very big batch, but they are heavenly. Enjoy!!

  1. You know, I've never baked a cookie. Well, not since I was little and did it with my mom. And once Nonie and I as teenagers tried a new recipe and after we got started realized we didn't have half the ingredients, and it was Sunday, so we borrowed them from neighbors. But your recipe inspired me, Lissa! I am going to make a cookie.
