• 1/4 c. butter, room temperature
• 1/4 c. canola oil
• 1/2 c. packed dark brown sugar
• 1/4 c. granulated sugar
• 1 egg
• 1 tsp. vanilla
• 1 tsp. chocolate extract (if not available, use 1 add'l tsp vanilla and call them Double Chocolate ....)
• 1 c. white whole-wheat flour (Or use 1/2 c. whole wheat and 1/2 c. all purpose flour)
• 1/4 c. unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/2 tsp. Rumford baking powder
• 1/8 tsp. kosher salt

1. Preheat the oven to 350F degrees, and line cookie sheet with parchment paper.
2. In large mixing bowl beat butter until creamy.
3. Beat in oil, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until well combined.
4. Beat in egg, vanilla, and chocolate extract until combined.
5. In the medium bowl, sift flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt together; stir into sugar mixture until well mixed.
6. Stir in chocolate chunks and nuts.
7. Drop dough by rounded teaspoons onto cookie sheets.
8. Bake 12 minutes, and let cook for one minute on cookie sheet before tranferring to wire cooling rack.
