Then mix in dry ingredients (flour, salt, soda) until it's all well blended.  Add the chocolate chips last- we've been using 60% cocoa ghirardelli chips.  They're "dark"- so if you don't like bitter sweet or slightly stronger than semi-sweet- you may of course use milk chocolate. Spread into jelly roll pan and bake at 325° for 10 minutes.  While it's still in the oven raise temperature to 350° for 13 minutes.  If they're done enough in the middle for you at this point ...

Slightly Healthier Chocolate Chip Cookies :)

My Dball will eat these with all oatmeal flour, but Kupcake won't for some reason, so I'm compromising so everyone can/will eat them.  The white flour is bad for me (and everyone else?) but it's less than half the flour in these, so I figure it's better than nothing.

No Knead Bread

No Knead Bread To begin: dissolve 2 TBSP yeast in ½ cup warm water Heat the following: 1½ cups milk or water ¼ - ½ cup sugar or honey ½ cup butter or coconut oil 1½ teaspoons salt Place 6 cups of white flour, or if you want wheat bread use 3 cups whole wheat flour and 3 cups white flour into your stand mixer bowl. Add yeast and heated mixture, and start mixer on low (cover it up- or it could fly all over your kitchen). While it's mixing add 2 eggs and incorporate them. Then turn to high and mix until it's all mixed well. If it's sticky, add ¼ cup flour and continue mixing. If it's still sticky, and when it's humid here sometimes it is, I just add ¼ cups of flour and mix until it's smooth and elastic. Cover and let rise 15-50 minutes until double. Take it out, stir it down (you can use the mixer if it's still in the mixer bowl, or take it out and smash/knead it down). This will make 2 loaves, 1 loaf and 12 rolls, or 24 roll...
