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.

LOWER MY CHOLESTEROL OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• 1. In a large bowl, beat the egg whites and oil with the salt and sugars.
• 2. Add applesauce, raisins, vanilla, soda, and cinnamon. Stir well.
• 3. Stir in the oats.
• 4. Add flour and mix just until well incorporated.
• 5. Chill dough, covered for an hour or longer.
• 6. Make 1 1/2 inch balls and bake 12 to a sheet in a 375 degree oven (350 in a convection oven) for about ten minutes. Remove from oven a rest on a rack for a minute and then use a spatula to transfer to a rack to cool thoroughly. Store airtight. Makes 36 cookies.

NO CHOLESTEROL CHOCOLATE CHIP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.
• In a medium bowl, stir together the canola oil, honey, sugar, egg whites, vanilla and water. Sift together the whole wheat flour, all purpose flour, baking powder, salt and cinnamon, stir into the wet ingredients. Mix well, then fold in the chocolate chips.
• Drop cookies by rounded teaspoonfuls onto the prepared cookie sheets. Flatten with a fork dipped in flour. Bake for 8 to 9 minutes in the preheated oven.

LOW-FAT HOLIDAY SUGAR COOKIES WITH ICING THAT HARDENS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Beat margarine and sugar until well mixed, adding egg white and vanilla as you go.
• Whisk baking powder, flour, tartar, and salt in another bowl. Mix bit-by-bit into egg mixture, not adding any more if the dough is too thick.
• Knead dough 3-5 times on heavily floured surface until smooth and at your desired consistency.
• Roll dough out on the heavily floured surface with a floured rolling pin, and cut shapes out. Place them on a cookie sheet, covered in parchment paper. (Don't sub the parchment paper for oil, butter, or cooking spray. Bottoms will crisp).
• Bake in oven for 7-10 minutes until tops of cookies have firmed, checking every few minutes to make sure they don't brown (these are best light and soft).
• Take out of oven and place on cooling rack.
• While cooling, mix powdered sugar and milk until smooth. Beat in corn syrup and vanilla until shiny.
• Add food colouring to icing if you wish, and ice the cookies once they have cooled. ENJOY!
