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 semisweet chocolate chips |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two cookies sheets with parchment paper or a silicone mat. 2. In a medium bowl, whisk flour, baking soda and salt. In a large bowl, whisk together the egg whites, butter, and vanilla; stir in the brown sugar until smooth. Gradually add in the flour mixture and mix well. Stir in chocolate chips. 3. Drop dough by the tablespoon onto cookie sheets about 2 inches apart. Bake one cookie sheet at a time for 10-12 minutes. |
