ZUCCHINI CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment or in a large bowl with a hand mixer, beat together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar on medium speed until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs one by one until completely blended, and mix in the the vanilla.
• In a medium bowl, sift together the flours, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
• Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and beat on low (or stir by hand) just until the ingredients are incorporated. Do not overmix. The batter will be stiff.
• Add the zucchini and chocolate chips and mix just until incorporated.
• Scoop the cookies in approximately 2-tablespoon increments, about 2 inches apart, onto an ungreased non-stick cookie sheet or cookie sheet lined with silicone mat. (I recommend a cookie scoop for this step.)
• Bake for 10 - 12 minutes, until the cookies seem set and light golden brown around the edges. Remove from oven and let sit on baking sheet for about 5 minutes, then move to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
