Orange Dark Chocolate-Chocolate Cookies

I came back from Denver and hadn't cooked in four days! So I mean what was a girl supposed to do, just sit there and not make anything the minute she got home? Well that would just be silly. Baking was on my mind and I had almost everything for these cookies, so why not make them. I thought maybe this will work, and let me tell you, it did!


What you need:
-1cups All-Purpose Flour
-1cup Whole Wheat Flour
-2/3cup unsweetened cocoa powder
-1tsp baking soda
-1/2tsp salt
-2/3cup vegetable oil
-1 1/2cups sugar
-4tsp ground flax seed
-1/2cup light soy milk
-1tsp vanilla extract

-1tsp orange extract
-The zest of one large navel orange
-6oz dark chocolate chunks





  1. Preheat oven to 350F
  2. In a large bowl sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a seperate large bowl, whisk together sugar and oil. Add flax seed, soy milk, vanilla, and orange extract. Mix well.
  4. Fold dry ingrediants into wet ingrediants in small batches. Once the batter begins to thicken switch to the rubber spatual and mix until fully incorporates.
  5. Mix in Dark Chocolate Chunks
  6. Line a baking sheet with parchmant paper and roll dough into 1in balls and flatten on sheet. 
  7. Bake for 10-11 mins until the tops of the cookies look cracked. Let sit on baking sheet for five minutes, then move to cooling racks.
  8. Enjoy!
