Buckwheat Chocolate Chip Cookies

The view from Great Island: Buckwheat Chocolate Chip Cookies:
Buckwheat Chocolate Chip Cookies (adapted from Barefeet in the Kitchen)
oven - 175C
makes approx 24 cookies

1/2 cup unsalted butter, barely softened
1/4 cup white sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
Beat the butter and sugars for several minutes until fluffy.
1 Tbsp vanilla extract
1 egg
Add in the vanilla and egg, beat well.
1 cup buckwheat flour
3/4 cup white whole wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon  cornstarch works too (this contributes to the soft and chewy texture of this cookie)

Whisk the above dry ingredients together, then add to the wet ingredient.
1 cup semi-sweet or bittersweet chocolate chips
Mix well, and fold in the chocolate chips.
Drop by medium sized scoops onto a silpat or parchment lied baking sheet.
Bake for about 10 minutes.  The cookies will appear slightly underdone.  Let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer to a rack.
