Why Most Store-Bought Cookies Use Seed Oils

Pick up any package of cookies at the grocery store — Oreos, Chips Ahoy, Girl Scout cookies — and you'll find soybean oil or canola oil in the ingredients. These cheap industrial oils replaced butter decades ago to cut costs and extend shelf life.

These recipes bring back real butter and coconut oil as the fat base. The result is a richer, more flavorful cookie that doesn't contain inflammatory seed oils.
