Almost Great Harvest Chocolate Chip Cookies

2 cups whole wheat flour

¾ cup white flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt

2 cups brown sugar, packed
3/4 cup butter, softened

1/4  cup shortening
2 cups rolled oats
2 eggs

1-2 tsp vanilla
2 tablespoons molasses
1 tablespoon milk

1 to 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Combine flours, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; set aside.

Beat together brown sugar and butter until well combined. Add oats, eggs, molasses, and milk; beat well. Add dry ingredients to beaten mixture; beat until blended. Stir in chocolate chips. Using a cookie scoop, scoop and drop about 3 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets.

Bake at 350 degrees F for 10 minutes, until just starting to brown around the outside. Cool 2 minutes on cookie sheets. Remove and cool on racks.

Makes about 45 cookies (with a small cookie scoop) or 24 large cookies (large cookie scoop or 1/4 cup—adjust baking time).

Adapted from source: Great Harvest Bread Company--This is NOT the official Great Harvest recipe... they only use whole wheat flour and butter, but I could not get them to turn out the way I wanted them to without adjusting with some shortening and white flour.
