So I’ve made a couple more batches of whole wheat, low sugar, chocolate chip cookies. I think I’ve got a pretty good recipe now. Steve ate 6 or 7 cookies in a within a two day period and managed to somehow lose 2 pounds. So now I like to call them my famous-lose-weight-now-cookies. Funny, it doesn’t seem to be working for me…
Here’s the recipe.
2 Cups unsifted whole wheat flour
1/2 tea. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
2 sticks butter
3/4 Cup Splenda (baking splenda)
3/4 Cup packed Brown Sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract
2 large eggs
1 T. Vegetable oil
1 bag semi-sweet chocolate chips
Mix flour, baking soda & salt in a small bowl. Beat butter, vanilla, Splenda & brown sugarin a large bowl until creamy. Mix eggs & oil in. Slowly add in other dry ingredients. Bake at 350 for 9 minutes.
Thanks for the tips, everyone! If you don’t want to use Splenda, just sub out the same amount of white sugar. Eat these with a tall glass of cold milk and consider yourself a health nut!!
I may have to come over and snag some of these cookies you are always making! I have been craving sweets recently, but can’t justify making a whole batch of cookies when it is just me and Kyle here, and I am the one that is home all day, so you know who is going to eat them!! :0)
ha! i’d like to lose weight on cookies!
if only i had looked at your blog sooner! i just made more cookies. a lose weight cookie is just the thing for me–i eat them way too much. now, if only they would count as a few veggie servings in a day, too. can’t wait to try the recipe
That recipe sounds great! Thanks for sharing I’ll be trying that one out for sure.
Well, Matthias seems to be enjoying the cookies. Maybe you could start a cookie diet business on the side–make some extra cash!
Those sound good! I am going to pick a word. I will post it on the pink blog. Those tags are awesome.
