Sofia's Chocolate Chip Cookies

1 cup organic stone-ground whole wheat flour
3/4 cup organic unbleached white flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup (2 sticks) organic butter
2 large organic eggs
2 Tbsp. organic whole milk
2 tsp. vanilla
2 1/2 cups organic old-fashioned oats
2 cups (12 oz) semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup walnuts, pecans, or almonds

Preheat oven to 375ºF
Beat sugar and butter in a mixer until creamy. Beat in eggs, milk and vanilla. Add the flours, baking soda, oats, chocolate chips and nuts (I let the mixer break up the nuts to save time and work). Drop by rounded tablespoons (teaspoons for smaller cookies) onto ungreased (non-teflon) baking sheet or baking stone.
Eat some of the dough just to make sure it tastes good :)
Bake for 9 to 10 minutes

I love these cookies because they are not too sweet, and have good ingredients to back them up. I use them for the kid's school lunch treats, and also for snacks during the day or after concerts- accompanied by coffee or whiskey, respectively...
