Easy cookies that offer the goodness of whole wheat and are sweetened with Splenda to lower sugar. Just don't be tempted to eliminate the all-purpose flour completely or the cookies will turn out too heavy. Ingredients:
2/3 cup butter or 2/3 cup margarine, softened |
1 cup splenda sugar substitute |
1 large egg |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/2 teaspoon baking powder |
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour |
1 cup all-purpose flour |
2/3 cup raisins |
2/3 cup chocolate chips or 2/3 cup butterscotch chips or 2/3 cup peanut butter chips or 2/3 cup white chocolate chips or 2/3 cup additional raisins |
Directions:
1. Beat butter, sugar, egg, vanilla, and baking powder until well blended.
2. With mixer on low, gradually add the whole-wheat and all-purpose flours.
3. Stir in, by hand, the raisins and/or chips.
4. Drop by heaping teaspoons 2 inches apart on cookie sheet.
5. Bake at 350 for 13-15 minutes (edges lightly browned).
