LOW FAT PUMPKIN CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Low Fat Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies image

A recipe I developed when wanted a lower fat, lower sugar cookie for tea time. If you've never made low fat cookies before, don't expect the texture to be like a higher fat cookie. Low fat cookies can be just as tasty, but have a more muffin like texture. Make sure you use plain pumpkin, not pumpkin pie filling.

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.

BETTER FOR YOUR HEART - CHEWY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES LOW FAT



Better for Your Heart - Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies Low Fat image

You would never believe that a cookie without butter and whole eggs could be this good. I have made these several times and each time I get a "mmmm...these are really good mom!" I came across this Chocolate Chip Cookie (CCC) recipe in Cooking Light. being an AVID CCC lover I knew I had to try. These were almost as good as the original Tollhouse recipe and without the worry of added fats (ie butter, whole eggs) I feel better about eating these. The result is a thick, chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie. Oh - the original recipe didn't call for butter extract - that was my own addition...I've also skipped the chilling and everything worked out just fine! The original recipe called for corn syrup - but honey works just as well and is not nearly as bad for you as HFCS...**UPDATE** I also wanted to add that recently we have been using organic virgin coconut oil instead of canola and it gives it the yummiest, most subtle "something" flavor. We also like to use these for ice cream sandwiches - because there is no butter the cookies dont get rock hard and they keep their nice chewy consistency. You can also try my oatmeal cookie recipe, also low fat & yummy! #300761
