Regarding your questions, I would not recommend changing anything about this recipe, just so you can experience the recipe as it was meant to be made. However, using all purpose flour will still turn out a great cookie. As for the combination of baking powder and baking soda? I'm no chemist, but due to all the positive reactions I received for these cookies (folks came back for 4th and 5ths!), I'd strongly encourage you to just try the recipe as it was written. Don't skip anything or change anything (except for many the size of cookie). I'd stick to the original recipe. <BR/><BR/>If you don't want to use both, perhaps you'd like the <A HREF="http://www.kingarthurflour.com/shop/RecipeDisplay?RID=6" REL="nofollow">King Authur Flour Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe</A> instead. It might be a better match for you due to its use of all purpose flour and only baking soda.Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17286364613015048949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3348881315663830662.post-20221879789071885032008-10-22T04:16:00.000-07:002008-10-22T04:16:00.000-07:00Gorgeous cookies!!<BR/><BR/>Saw your comment on my blog: Yes, you can definitely find the coconut-milk "yogurt" at Whole Foods.VeggieGirlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00785142908687097216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3348881315663830662.post-37824898885138735462008-10-22T01:12:00.000-07:002008-10-22T01:12:00.000-07:00Julia, happy belated birthday!
