Light Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

Since I've been talking about products so much in the last several posts, I decided to mix it up today and share a recipe I found recently. As you can see, it's a recipe for light chocolate chip cookies. There's hardly anything better than a classic chocolate chip cookie, but my boyfriend wanted us to try and find a recipe that called for egg whites so that's what we did! We also substituted the white sugar for Truvia to make them even "lighter" than the recipe called for. If you want to see the original recipe you can see it here on allrecipes.com.


Ingredients:
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup white sugar
6 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg white
3 tablespoons water
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

In a medium bowl, cream the butter with the brown and white sugars. Stir in the vanilla, egg white, and water. Sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt; stir into the creamed mixture. Mix in the chocolate chips.

Drop dough by heaping spoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven. Allow cookies to cool for 1 minutes on baking sheets before  transferring to wire racks to cool completely. 


The cookies generally take about 12 minutes for me and they come out perfectly. They are very soft, cake-like and spongey cookies and I have been loving warming them up and dunking them in a cold glass of milk- yum!


Before I started making these I'm pretty sure I had never made homemade chocolate chip cookies before! I will definitely continue to do it this way because I'm very impressed with this recipe and I don't feel quite as bad eating them ;)

If you guys make these, I'm sure you won't be disappointed!
