BEST LOW-FAT CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES EVER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F. Line two cookie sheets with non-stick silicone baking mats (I highly recommend for best results) or lightly spray cookie sheets with cooking spray.
• In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking soda and salt and stir to blend.
• In another bowl, whisk the sugars, butter, egg white, applesauce and vanilla together until light and fluffy.
• Whisk the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients in two additions until the batter is very well blended. If the batter looks more "crumbly" than smooth, add just a drop of water at a time (ONLY if needed) until it smooths out.
• Fold in chocolate chips. Drop by level spoonfuls about 1 inch apart onto baking sheets.
• Bake 8 - 10 minutes. Remove from the oven, and let them stand 5 minutes before removing the cookies from the pans to cool on wire racks.
