Is there anything better than classic chocolate chip cookies? You betcha! Once you add a little cricket powder--packed with protein, healthy fats, and pre-biotic fiber--you improve the flavor and nutritional profile. Try 'em once and we think you'll agree it's an improvement over the traditional yellow bag of chocolate chips recipe.
If you like traditional chocolate chip cookies, you'll love these. With a boost in flavor and nutrition, they're a perfect introduction to baking with cricket powder. Expert tasters will notice a subtle nutty flavor from the cricket powder, while novices won't be able to tell the difference. Let us know what you think!
½ tsp Salt (fine kosher or fine sea salt if possible)
2 c. Chocolate chips (milk or dark chocolate)
Directions
Preheat oven to 350°F on Bake (not convection).
Soften the butter to room temperature, and then mix together the butter, sugar, and light brown sugar (this works best with a stand mixer) until the mix is soft and fluffy.
To the butter/sugar mixture, add the vanilla extract, and mix in one egg at a time until fully combined. If mixing by hand, whisk the two eggs in a separate bowl before combining with the butter/sugar mixture to ensure thorough mixing.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose baking flour, Pure Cricket Powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until fully combined.
Now take the wet mixture, and slowly add it to the dry ingredients while continuing to stir. Keep stirring until the ingredients are fully mixed in, and then fold in the chocolate chips.
On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, use a tablespoon or large spoon to place your cookie dough in equal size rounds.
Place these in the oven, and bake for 12-14 min.

I made the chocolate lovers cookies first (duh), but tried these out as well! Equally amazing and turned out a little better for me (more familiar?). I love having an after dinner cookie knowing I’m getting s fiber boost and nutritious protein. I feel this is a more natural product vs artificial powders.
