LOW-FAT DOUBLE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Low-Fat Double Chocolate Chip Cookies image

These came from a Pillsbury healthy baking cookbook. They make a small batch, so double if you're serving them to more than a couple of people. Also, the dough can get a little dry near the end sometimes. Adding a little bit of milk or chocolate liqueur will help loosen it up nicely.

Categories     Drop Cookies

Time 26m

Yield 36 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

16 tablespoons light butter, such as Smart Balance or Land O'Lakes Light
1 egg
2 egg whites
1 1/4 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1 1/2 cups unbleached flour
1/2 cup ground oatmeal (measure after grounding the oats to a coarse flour consistency)
1 teaspoon baking soda
10 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips, good quality (I plan to chop up dark Dove bars)
1/4 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
1/4 teaspoon salt, to bring out a bit more flavor

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Cream the butter and both sugars in a large bowl. Beat with electric mixer until smooth. Add the egg, egg whites, salt and the vanilla. Beat well.
  • In a smaller bowl, combine the dry ingredients (flour, ground oatmeal and baking soda). Slowly add the dry items into the larger bowl and beat with electric mixer until batter is smooth and creamy. Fold in entire bag of chocolate chips, and if you like add the walnuts.
  • Drop dough by large teaspoons (or scant Tablespoons) onto cookie sheet and bake for 11 minutes (the time REALLY depends on your oven so watch that first batch!).

Tips:

  • Use almond flour and oat flour for a gluten-free and low-carb option: Almond flour and oat flour are great alternatives to traditional wheat flour, making these cookies suitable for those with gluten sensitivities or those following a low-carb diet.
  • Use a combination of maple syrup and coconut sugar for a refined sugar-free option: Maple syrup and coconut sugar are natural sweeteners that provide a healthier alternative to refined sugar, reducing the overall sugar content of the cookies.
  • Add a pinch of salt to enhance the flavor of the cookies: A small amount of salt can help balance the sweetness of the cookies and enhance the overall flavor profile.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough can result in tough cookies. Mix just until the ingredients are well combined to ensure a soft and chewy texture.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes helps firm it up, making it easier to handle and less likely to spread too much in the oven.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are golden brown: The cookies should be slightly soft in the center but set around the edges. Overbaking can dry them out, so keep a close eye on them in the oven.

Conclusion:

These low-fat, calorie-conscious chocolate chip cookies offer a delicious and healthier alternative to traditional chocolate chip cookies. By using wholesome ingredients like almond flour, oat flour, maple syrup, and coconut sugar, these cookies provide a reduced sugar content and a good source of fiber. The addition of dark chocolate chips adds a rich, indulgent flavor without compromising the overall health benefits of the cookies. Whether you're looking for a gluten-free, low-carb, or refined sugar-free option, these cookies have something for everyone. Enjoy them as a guilt-free snack or a satisfying dessert, knowing that you're making a choice that's both tasty and nutritious.
