HEALTHIER BEST CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
I love these cookies but I really wanted to try to make them a little lighter. I actually used sweet potato puree for some of the butter and juice squeezed from an orange for some of the sugar and they still taste great. It sounds a little odd but try it!!

ALMOST HEALTHY AND SURPRISINGLY GOOD CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
I made this recipe based roughly on a few recipes I found and several of my favorite healthy ingredients. Don't want to talk it up too much, but the outcome was a pleasant surprise. My family liked it too, and none of us are the type of people to substitute flavor for health. It does have a few ingredients that you might not find around your kitchen (like chia or diatomaceous earth), even though they are good, healthy foods or supplements that should add to the health value. But I don't think it'd be too hard to omit them or replace with something of similar substance. I would not advise skimping on the chocolate chips. If you like darker chocolate, all the healthier, but I say get your favorite kind of chocolate chips, no matter how unhealthy. I'll also add this does not make a very good dough. If you're the type of person who make chocolate chip cookies as an excuse to eat cookie dough, stick to the old tollhouse recipe. Make sure the diatomaceous earth is "food grade." There is a non-food grade which you don't want to eat! Chia is a very healthy seed that has its roots in Aztec and other native cultures and is only now being grown in quantities enough for people to take it as a supplement. It's the same seed that you put on your chia pet, but you can get supplement chia seed at your health food store. Chia seed, when soaked, absorbs six times its weight in water. To make chia gel, put 1/3 cup of chia in a jar with 2 cups of water. Let soak overnight. You can add this healthy chia gel to all sorts of things for an extra health boost: mayonaise, jelly, eggs, cookie recipes, etc. This recipe calls for 1/2 cup chia gel. You can make just that amount or more, if you might use it other places. It will keep for a couple weeks in the fridge.

HEALTHIER ABSOLUTELY THE BEST CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
These cookies are amazing but I wanted to add some grains and cut the fat. By adding some cheerios and kiwi puree I have done just that. They taste great and have vitamins and antioxidants.

THE HEART HEALTHIEST CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
This recipe is from The Vegetarian Times magazine, I love them, this is the recipe that I found for my cookie monster husband who has cholesterol problems, and these cookies are excellent for him, no butter, no eggs and the omegas from the nuts, and of course they are delicious . Don't forget to wait until dough is cool to add the chocolate chips or they will melt.

COMPLEX CHEWY GOOEY GOOD CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
More complicated than your normal chocolate chip cookie....but the result is well worth it. Every new member needs their special indulgence type recipe, and this is mine. Note that I tend to improvise, so the exactness of the amounts is questionable.. just don't go over 2 tsp on the cornstarch. These cookies are delectable warmed in the microwave or dipped in milk.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375°.

- Add egg and egg yolk, beat for an excessive time again.
- Add vanilla (yes, that really is a tablespoon) and milk, if using. Again, cream together thoroughly.

- Stir in chocolate chips.
- Chill for 2-4 hours or until quite firm.
- Drop by scant 1/4 cups or by a cookie dropper onto greased baking sheets, bake in your 375° oven for about 13-16 minutes, until done puffing and pale golden brown.
