Who doesn't love homemade Chocolate Chunk Cookies?! I had bought my package of chocolate chunks awhile back, but never made it around to making them..... So today I decided "YES!"..... and then realized I didn't have enough all-purpose flour to make them. I was lucky enough to run into this recipe from the Betty Crocker website for whole wheat chocolate chip cookies (since I had some whole wheat flour in the freezer)

Whole Wheat Chocolate Chunk Cookies:
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup butter or margarine, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 egg
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 package (12 ounces) semisweet chocolate chunks (2 cups)

Directions:
1. Heat oven to 375º F.
2.  Mix sugars, butter, vanilla and egg in large bowl.  Stir in flour, baking soda and salt (dough will be stiff).  Stir in chocolate chunks. Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls about 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheet.
3.  Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until light brown (centers will be soft).  Cool slightly; remove from cookie sheet.  Cool on wire rack.
