Here’s your ingredient line-up. Nice and simple.
How To Make Whole Wheat Chocolate Chip Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.and line a large baking sheet with a silpat liner or parchment paper.
- Beat butter and sugars until well combined. Stir in peanut butter, honey, egg and vanilla, stirring until well combined. Slowly stir in the Whole Wheat Flour, baking soda, salt and mini chocolate chips until just combined.
- With a medium cookie scoop, place dough onto prepared baking sheet about 1 inch apart.
- Bake for 11-13 minutes until golden around the edges. Remove and let cool for 10 minutes before transferring to cooling rack.
I used a big mixing bowl to whip up my cookies, but certainly use your stand mixer if you’d like.
Let’s cream our butter and sugars to get started.
A nice spoonful of creamy peanut butter.
Bring on the honey!
4 tablespoons of honey please 🙂
One lovely egg.
Add a splash of vanilla as well.
Time for our dry ingredients.
Lots of fabulous mini chocolate chips.
This dough!
Ready for the oven. Bake until golden on the outsides.
Perfection. Try these chilled too. Amazing.
Tips For Making The Best Cookies
- Don’t alter the recipe, use all ingredients as listed.
- For a more firm cookie, refrigerate your cookie dough for 24 hours before baking.
- Always use butter, not margarine. ALWAYS. I prefer salted butter for my chocolate chip cookies. Try it!
- Do not ever grease your cookie sheets. Will make cookies spread and change texture.
- Don’t skip creaming your butter and sugars for a good 2 minutes. Helps create a fluffy, chewy cookie.
- Try sprinkling dough with just a touch of salt for a perfect sweet and salty combination.
- Don’t overtake your cookies. Cookies will continue to cook on hot cookie sheet when removed from oven.
- Let cookies cool completely before storing in containers. This will keep their crispness
- Store leftover cookies in an airtight container for 3 days room temperature.

I have white whole wheat flour on hand. Will let you know how they turn out with this substitution.
Awesome recipe! I cook with whole wheat flour and sometimes t he recipes are a little too healthy tasting. I made a change to this, reducing the butter and adding coconut oil. Hell yeah. Thanks for this easy yummy recipe.
You’re welcome! Glad you enjoyed.
This is a perfect mid-afternoon snack.
Do you offer nutritional information? I would love that 🙂
Hi Rachel, I’m sorry we don’t offer nutritional information. We’ve done it maybe once or twice but it’s very time consuming and you’re almost guaranteed to make an error–for these reasons we currently don’t offer. Thanks for asking!!:)
I just made these on a whim. They were delicious! It was hard to stop eating them 🙂
This look wonderful! Can’t wait to make. Any healthy substitutions for the butter?
Have you tried this with almond butter at all?
I just made these cookies. So good!!
I made it just as read, baked a dozen, then added barley flakes, flax, coconut flakes, and Pepitas for the second batch for a little more texture. Both were wonderful!
