I LOVE cinnamon, so I will try any recipe with that as an ingredient. I especially love when it is used with an uncommon ingredient so the taste is unexpected. That's definitely the case with these, absolutely delicious and lower in fat and calories! Ingredients:
2 cups flour |
3/4 cup light butter, softened |
1/3 cup splenda granular, sugar substitute |
3/4 teaspoon baking powder |
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon |
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips |
1/4 cup light butter, cut into pieces |
1 1/4 cups light brown sugar |
3 egg whites |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
powdered sugar (optional) |
Directions:
1. For Cookie Crust: Beat flour, butter, sugar, and cinnamon until crumbly. Press into bottom of ungreased 13x9-inch baking pan. Bake at 350°F for 15-18 minutes.
2. For Chocolate Layer: Melt chips and butter in saucepan over low heat until smooth. Remove from heat and stir in brown sugar, egg whites, and vanilla. Pour over hot crust.
3. Bake at 350°F for 20-25 minutes. Cool and sprinkle with powdered sugar (if you'd like). Cut into bars.
