Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup of butter 225g
  • 2&2/3 cup Fresh Milled Einkorn Flour (365g) Mill 365g of einkorn berries to get that flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1 cup sugar 210g
  • 1 cup brown sugar 210g
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp Vanilla I love to use my homemade HERE
  • 1 bag Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips 340g

Instructions
 

  • First, brown your butter in a medium saucepan on medium heat. Make sure to watch this step, as the butter boils it can foam out of the pan quickly. It will bubble, then foam. Don't walk away, it can burn quickly too. Once the butter solids have browned, remove from heat, and let it cool to below 110* F
  • While waiting for the butter to cool, Mill your flour. I milled 1&2/3 cup of Einkorn berries to get my total flour.
  • Now, add your baking powder, baking soda, and salt to your milled flour and mix in.
  • Once the butter has cooled slightly, put it in your mixer with the sugars, and beat to combine for about 2 minutes.
  • Next, add your eggs one at a time, then beat for about 3 minutes on medium high. It is ok if it looks greasy at this stage, it will come together later.
  • Add your vanilla and beat for 2 more minutes until fully combines. At this stage, it should resemble a cake batter consistency.
  • Slowly add your flour mixture on low until everything is all incorporated.
  • Lastly, add the chocolate chips, and mix in gently.
  • Let the dough rest in the fridge.
  • Preheat oven to 350*F
  • Scoop with cookie scoop onto a lined baking sheet, and bake for 9 to 10 minutes.

*Alternate Bake for Later Option*

  • After the dough is made, scoop cookie balls onto a lined baking sheet, and flash freeze for 1 to 2 hours. Put these frozen raw cookie dough balls into a freezer safe container, and freeze for up to 4 months. You can use as many as you want, just bake them straight from frozen at 350* for 11-12 minutes.

Notes

These delicious cookies can be made with regular white flour, but the flour ratio may need to be adjusted. 
You can try other fresh ground wheat & grains to make a custom flour blend to your liking! Try adding a bit of Milled barley as some of your flour, yum!
*If you decide not to brown the butter, there will be too much moisture in the dough from the moisture content in the butter, so make sure to add a bit more flour (about 1/2 cup more 60g)
