Fairly traditional and easy to make. Just a bit healthier than your average cookie; less butter but still has oil, a little less sugar, uses not the sweetest chocolate chips. Of course it's better than buying a run-of-the-mill cookies that has ingredients that one cannot recognize. Also these cookies contain pure cocoa and you can top them with heart healthy walnuts!

Tips


Earth-friendly and budget-friendly tip - Reuse parchment paper


Don't skip the salt; it adds a certain je ne sais quoi


Time Saving Tips

None. This one does not take too long. If you want you can use oil only. That saves you from softening the butter--and it's a little healthier


Bake in air fryer - no preheat time


Meal Planning Tips

Do what you can when you can (-; for example, if you have time to gather your dry ingredients the night before then do that. If you have time to crack an egg and add vanilla to it and hour before do that. Make sure to cover both.
