Chocolate chip cookies will never be declared a health food, but you can make them less unhealthy by tweaking the ingredients a little. Here's a recipe for a lighter chocolate chip cookie that still manages to satisfy a sweet tooth, but perhaps with a little less guilt. Ingredients:
1/2 cup whole-wheat flour |
3/4 cup all-purpose flour |
1/4 tsp baking soda |
1/4 tsp salt |
4 tbsp butter, melted |
2 egg whites |
1 tsp vanilla extract |
3/4 cup light brown sugar |
1/2 cup chocolate chips |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 2. Line two cookies sheets with parchment paper or a silicone mat. 3. In a medium bowl, whisk flour, baking soda and salt. 4. In a large bowl, whisk together the egg whites, butter, and vanilla; stir in the brown sugar until smooth. 5. Gradually add in the flour mixture and mix well. Stir in chocolate chips. 6. Drop dough by the tablespoon onto cookie sheets about 2 inches apart. Bake one cookie sheet at a time for 10-12 minutes. |
