Mix all the dry ingredients except for the chocolate chips together with a spoon till well blended then add the wet ingredients and mix till totally combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.

———————————–

Refrigerate the dough for at least 1/2 hour

Scoop with a medium cookie scoop onto a parchment lined sheet pan. (about 30 cookies) bake at 350 for 15-20 min. (at my altitude—2500- they took 18 minutes.)

They will be brown on the bottom, pale on top. Crunchy outside and soft inside.
