Instructions

Chocolate Chunks

  1. Place the chocolate in a small metal bowl that fits in a small pan with an inch or so of water.
  2. Turn the stovetop onto medium-low heat.
  3. Stir continually until the chocolate is smooth and completely melted.
  4. Pour onto parchment paper in the shape of a 3 by 4-inch rectangle. You don't want it too thin.
  5. Put in the refrigerator for about 10 - 15 minutes or until hard.
  6. Cut the chocolate into about half inch squares. Don't worry if it breaks unevenly.

Cookies

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together all the flours, chia, salt and baking soda. Set aside.
  4. In a food processor or in the bowl of a mixer, add the room temperature butter, sugar, maple syrup, extract and mix together well.
  5. Add in the melted butter and scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl.
  6. Add in the flour mixture and mix in well.
  7. Scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl and mix until incorporated.
  8. Dump the dough into the medium bowl and stir in the chocolate chunks or chips.

  9. Use a 1-ounce cookie scoop, making sure it is leveled.
  10. Arrange with about 1 1/2 inches in between each cookie.
  11. You can leave the dough in a ball and bake or flatten them a little or a lot. The flatter they are, the crispier they will be.
  12. Bake for 10 - 12 minutes, depending on how crispy you like your cookies.

  13. Let cool on the cookie sheet until firm then transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool.
