I made these today and everyone liked them better than chocolate chip cookies made with butter!
Coconut Oil White Chocolate Chip Cookies
3/4 cup coconut oil, softened (softened to the consistency of soft butter)
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
2 eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup whole wheat flour (you can use all white flour, but this makes them chewier)
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips
1/2 cup roughly chopped nuts (your choice), optional
Preheat oven to 350. Lightly spray 2 cookie sheets and set aside.
Put coconut oil, sugars, eggs, and vanilla extract in large mixing bowl. Beat with electric mixer on medium-high until light and fluffy.
Stir in remaining ingredients.
Drop by rounded teaspoons onto baking sheets, leaving about 2" between cookies. Bake about 8-10 minutes, or until very lightly browned. Remove immediately.
Makes about 3 dozen cookies.
Note: This link goes to the recipe that inspired mine. It sounded like too much trouble so I simplified it.
