Found this recipe in a magazine. It sounded trustworthy so I thought I'd try making it, and now I make them whenever I get a sweet tooth! This recipe uses whole-wheat flour, plus mashed banana instead of eggs. The result? Less cholesterol and far than regular cookies. Also, the dark chocolate is healthier than milk -quote about the recipe Ingredients:
2 1/4 cups whole wheat flour |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 cup non-hydrogenated margarine, softened |
3/4 cup white sugar |
3/4 cup packed brown sugar |
1 mashed ripe banana |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 (12 ounce) package dark semi-sweet chocolate chips |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. Combine flour, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl.
3. In a large bowl, beat together margarine, white sugar and brown sugar until smooth.
4. Add banana and vanilla extract.
5. Gradually add the flour mixture while beating until the mixture is smooth.
6. Stir in the chocolate chips.
7. Drop spoonfuls of dough about 1 inch apart onto ungreased baking sheets.
8. Bake for about 10-15 minutes, or until cookies are golden brown.
9. Let stand for a few minutes, then transfer with a spatula to a wire rack to cool.
