    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!

    Prep Time: 10 minutes

    Cook Time: 12 minutes

    Total Time: 22 minutes

    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 firmly-packed light brown sugar
    1/2 cup dark chocolate chips

    Preparation:

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two cookies sheets with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
    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.

    Drop dough by the tablespoon onto cookie sheets about 2 inches apart. Bake one cookie sheet at a time for 10-12 minutes.

    Yields 24 cookies.

    Per Cookie : Calories 92, Calories from Fat 30, Total Fat 3.4g, (sat 2.6g), Cholesterol 6mg, Sodium 45mg, Carbohydrate 14.5g, Fiber 0.7g, Protein 1.2g
    ( really the cookie nutrition is going to different due to different flours, chocolate etc. )
    ( You could use applesauce of course instead of butter but.. the cookies are going to be more " chewy " and gummy like, they also won't rise very much. a small amount of butter WON'T hurt you. which is why I would just use real butter or coconut oil :happy: )

    I don't want to be rude but vegans don't eat butter or egg. If you made them vegan and with artificial sweetener you could cut the calories in half, if not lower.
