Steps:
- Mix the butter and sugar together using an electric whisk or hand whisk until very light and fluffy, then beat in the egg and vanilla. Fold in the flour, baking powder, chocolate and ¼ tsp salt as quickly as you can. Don't overwork the dough as this will toughen the cookies.
- For the best flavour, leave the mixture overnight: either cover the bowl and chill, or roll the mixture into balls and chill.
- Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and line two baking sheets with parchment. Divide the mixture into balls, the craggier the balls, the rougher the cookies will look. If you want to give the dough more texture, tear the balls in half and squidge them lightly back together. Space out evenly on the baking sheets, leaving enough space between each to allow for spreading.
- Bake the fresh cookies for 8-10 mins and the chilled ones for 10-12 mins, or until browned and a little crisp at the edges but still very soft in the middle - they will harden a little as they cool. Leave to cool on the tray for a few minutes before eating warm, or transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Will keep for three days in an airtight container.

HEALTHIER BEST BIG, FAT, CHEWY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE
Blueberries are both healthy and great tasting. I altered this original recipe by adding a bunch of them, along with some dried cranberries and some yogurt for butter. They are still big and chewy and super yummy but healthier as well.

BETTER FOR YOUR HEART - CHEWY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES LOW FAT
You would never believe that a cookie without butter and whole eggs could be this good. I have made these several times and each time I get a "mmmm...these are really good mom!" I came across this Chocolate Chip Cookie (CCC) recipe in Cooking Light. being an AVID CCC lover I knew I had to try. These were almost as good as the original Tollhouse recipe and without the worry of added fats (ie butter, whole eggs) I feel better about eating these. The result is a thick, chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie. Oh - the original recipe didn't call for butter extract - that was my own addition...I've also skipped the chilling and everything worked out just fine! The original recipe called for corn syrup - but honey works just as well and is not nearly as bad for you as HFCS...**UPDATE** I also wanted to add that recently we have been using organic virgin coconut oil instead of canola and it gives it the yummiest, most subtle "something" flavor. We also like to use these for ice cream sandwiches - because there is no butter the cookies dont get rock hard and they keep their nice chewy consistency. You can also try my oatmeal cookie recipe, also low fat & yummy! #300761

Steps:
- Combine oil and syrup in large bowl, stir with whisk, add sugars and stir until well blended, add vanilla, butter flavoring and egg whites.
- Lightly spoon flours into dry measuring cups and combine flours, baking soda and salt in a small bowl - add to sugar mixture, stirring until well combined.

- Preheat oven to 375°.
- Drop dough by level tablespoons, 2-inches apart on cookie sheets coated with cooking spray.
- Bake for 8 minutes, remove and cool on pan for 2 minutes; remove and cool on wire racks.
- I use Silpat liners - thus not needing cooking spray - I recommend everyone buy some Silpat liners (I've given them away to almost everyone I know!).
Tips:
- Use whole wheat flour or oat flour instead of all-purpose flour for added fiber and nutrients.
- Reduce the amount of sugar by using alternatives like stevia or monk fruit.
- Use unsweetened applesauce or mashed banana as a natural sweetener and add moisture.
- Choose dark chocolate chips with a higher cacao content for antioxidants and less sugar.
- Add nuts or seeds for extra crunch and healthy fats.
- Bake the cookies at a lower temperature for a longer time to prevent burning and ensure even cooking.
- Let the cookies cool completely before storing to maintain their texture and flavor.

These heart-healthy chocolate chip cookies offer a delicious and nutritious alternative to traditional cookies.
