Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup canola oil
  • 1 egg or 1/4 cup fat-free egg product
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 1 cup white whole wheat flour
  • 3/4 cup uncooked 5-grain rolled hot cereal
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup dried cherries
  • 1/3 cup bittersweet chocolate chips

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 375°F. In medium bowl, mix sugars, oil, egg and vanilla. Stir in flour, cereal, baking soda and salt until blended (dough will be slightly soft). Stir in cherries and chocolate chips.
  • 2
    On cookie sheets, drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls 2 inches apart. Bake 7 to 8 minutes or until light golden brown around edges (centers will look slightly underdone). Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks. Cool completely. Store in tightly covered container.

  • If you can’t find bittersweet chocolate chips, semisweet will work just fine in the recipe. Also, to form perfectly shaped cookies, try using a #40 cookie scoop. Look for this handy tool at a specialty kitchen store.
