[...] And thus continues my obsession with Good to the Grain. I’ve made Kim Boyce’s whole wheat chocolate chip cookies before (the first recipe listed in the book) and they’re now the only chocolate chip cookies I ever want to eat. Those interested in trying them out at home (please, please do) can find a close version of the recipe via A Sweet Spoonful. [...]

Thanks, Lis! I’m so happy you stopped by! The dried cherries sound like an awesome idea. Hope you’re having a great summer, teaching job or no come fall

I love this recipe! It’s frightening how quickly those cookies disappear once made–and how soon I want to make them again every time. It’s been a while, so I think I feel okay about whipping up a batch this afternoon…

I put a handful of chopped dried cherries in once, and I highly recommend the combo. Great flavor, and nutritious to boot!

As an out-of-work English teacher myself, I want to say how much I like your blog (just discovered it). Will check in again often. Thanks!

Ohhh….I’ll freeze some of the dough next time. Good call. This will prevent eating too darn many. Thanks for stopping by and for the great tip

I also got this book and this was the first recipe I tried from it. I had thought my chocolate chip cookie recipe was unbeatable but she definitely beat it. I have to admit though, I didn’t notice the “cold butter” instructions until after I had already softened the butter and they were still delicious. I agree that the salt was key, as was the good quality chocolate. Later, I made these again and froze some of the dough for later and it also worked out wonderfully.

These cookies look amazing. I’ve tried the Quinoa and Beet Pancakes and the Rhubarb Tarts. Both were incredible. There’s too much to try in Good to the Grain, but these are high on my list. Hope you had an awesome time in China!

Thank you so much for the comment and advice, Nicky! We ran across Franck yesterday actually and it looked lovely (but closed at the time). Unfortunately this is our last day in Shanghai (far too short!), but I plan on returning so I’ll keep your other recommendation in mind. Thank you!
