Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies with Organic Flour

Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies with Organic Flour

A good chocolate chip cookie starts with a recipe you trust and ingredients measured consistently. Organic flour can fit into your favorite cookie routine without making the process complicated.

Choose an everyday baking flour

Organic Lily White All-Purpose Flour is a versatile choice for recipes that call for all-purpose flour. For a whole-grain variation, look for a recipe written for Organic Whole Wheat Pastry Flour rather than assuming a full substitution will bake identically.

Measure flour consistently

Use the recipe's gram weights when available. If measuring by cups, follow the recipe's stated method and avoid packing flour into the cup. Extra flour can change spread and make a cookie drier than intended.

Match the recipe's butter and dough temperature

Softened butter, melted butter and cold butter are not interchangeable steps. Follow the method the recipe was developed for. If it calls for chilling, allow the full rest and keep later batches at a similar dough temperature for more consistent results.

Watch mixing and tray temperature

Once the flour is added, mix only as directed. Portion dough evenly, leave room for spreading and let hot baking sheets cool before loading the next batch. Follow the recipe's visual cues as well as its time range because ovens and cookie sizes vary.

Try our chocolate chip peanut butter cookies

For a variation with peanut butter, follow our Chocolate Chip (Peanut Butter) Cookies recipe, which uses Lily White flour. Check all ingredients for your household's dietary needs; that recipe includes peanut butter and is not a peanut-free option.
