Lunchbox Cookies

Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
• 1 cup quick-cooking oats
• 1/2 cup 5-grain hot cereal mix
• 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup butter, softened
• 1/2 cup white sugar
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

Whisk all-purpose flour, whole wheat pastry flour, oats, 5-grain cereal, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl. Mix butter with white and brown sugar in a separate large bowl until mixture is smooth and creamy. Beat eggs into creamed mixture with an electric mixer until thoroughly combined. Gradually beat dry ingredients into moist ingredients to make a dough. Stir chocolate chips into dough. Drop batter by heaping teaspoonfuls onto prepared baking sheets, keeping cookies about 2 inches apart.

Bake in the preheated oven until cookies are lightly browned, about 10 minutes.
