I looooove chocolate chip cookies but am looking for a recipe that is healthier and has less calories than usual.

Anyone have a great recipe? :)

    just make a smaller batch of regular ones and enjoy LOL

    i mean, you could use splenda instead of sugar, carob (yuck) instead of chocolate chips, etc but.... why bother. just make a batch, keep some for you and give the rest away :)

    1 cup almond butter or other nut butter (creamy), 1/2 cup light brown sugar, 2 eggs, 1/4 tsp of salt, and 1 cup chocolate chips. Mix all together and drop by tablespoons on parchment lined baking sheet. Bake about 10 min. Will not spread out a lot. Makes about 2 dozen small cookies.

    My kids had no idea they were eating cookies made from avocado and gobbled 'em right up. http://greatist.com/eat/recipes/dark-chocolate-avocado-cookies
