Better For Your Heart Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies Low Fat Recipes

THE BEST CHEWY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together the sugars, salt, and butter until a paste forms with no lumps.
• Whisk in the egg and vanilla, beating until light ribbons fall off the whisk and remain for a short while before falling back into the mixture.
• Sift in the flour and baking soda, then fold the mixture with a spatula (Be careful not to overmix, which would cause the gluten in the flour to toughen resulting in cakier cookies).
• Fold in the chocolate chunks, then chill the dough for at least 30 minutes. For a more intense toffee-like flavor and deeper color, chill the dough overnight. The longer the dough rests, the more complex its flavor will be.
• Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Scoop the dough with an ice-cream scoop onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, leaving at least 4 inches (10 cm) of space between cookies and 2 inches (5 cm) of space from the edges of the pan so that the cookies can spread evenly.
• Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges have started to barely brown.
• Cool completely before serving.
• Enjoy!

FAT-FREE CHEWY CHOCOLATE COOKIES

Steps:

• Spray cookie sheets with cooking spray.
• In large bowl, combine flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda and salt (I like to sift them together to destroy any lumps in the cocoa).
• Stir in corn syrup and egg white until blended (dough will be thick and slightly sticky).
• Drop by rounded teaspoon onto prepared cookie sheets.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 7 to 9 minutes or just until set (cookies will be soft when pressed).
• Do not overbake.
• Cool on wire rack.

CHEWY CHOCOLATE COOKIES (LOW FAT)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F Grease two cookies sheets.
• Beat egg whites until frothy.
• Sift sugar, cocoa and flour into the whites.
• Add water.
• Continue beating on high for a few minutes until the mixture thickens.
• Fold in walnuts and chocolate chips with a rubber spatula.
• Place generous spoonfuls on the mixture one inch apart on the cookie sheets.
• Bake 12-15 minutes, until firm on top but soft on the inside. It is best to bake these one sheet at a time.
• Cool on a wire rack.

CHEWY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Mix the butter and sugar together using an electric whisk or hand whisk until very light and fluffy, then beat in the egg and vanilla. Fold in the flour, baking powder, chocolate and ¼ tsp salt as quickly as you can. Don't overwork the dough as this will toughen the cookies.
• For the best flavour, leave the mixture overnight: either cover the bowl and chill, or roll the mixture into balls and chill.
• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and line two baking sheets with parchment. Divide the mixture into balls, the craggier the balls, the rougher the cookies will look. If you want to give the dough more texture, tear the balls in half and squidge them lightly back together. Space out evenly on the baking sheets, leaving enough space between each to allow for spreading.
• Bake the fresh cookies for 8-10 mins and the chilled ones for 10-12 mins, or until browned and a little crisp at the edges but still very soft in the middle - they will harden a little as they cool. Leave to cool on the tray for a few minutes before eating warm, or transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Will keep for three days in an airtight container.

• Drop dough by level tablespoons, 2-inches apart on cookie sheets coated with cooking spray.
