Tips:

  • Use a low-fat cake mix: This is the base of the cookies and will help to reduce the overall fat content. Look for a cake mix that is labeled "low-fat" or "light."
  • Add applesauce or mashed banana: These ingredients add moisture and sweetness to the cookies without adding a lot of fat. You can also use other mashed fruits, such as pears or peaches.
  • Use egg whites instead of whole eggs: Egg whites have less fat than whole eggs, so they will help to reduce the overall fat content of the cookies.
  • Reduce the amount of oil or butter: The original recipe may call for oil or butter, but you can reduce the amount by half or even omit it altogether. The cookies will still be moist and delicious.
  • Add healthy ingredients: You can boost the nutritional value of the cookies by adding ingredients like oats, nuts, or dried fruit.
  • Bake the cookies at a lower temperature: This will help to prevent them from becoming too dry or crispy.

Conclusion:

By following these tips, you can make delicious low-fat cake mix cookies that are perfect for a healthy snack or dessert. These cookies are a great way to satisfy your sweet tooth without sacrificing your health. They are also a good option for people who are watching their weight or have dietary restrictions.
