Another Slightly Healthier Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe
A chocolate chip cookie with slightly less sugar, salt and chocolate chips but still very tasty
I haven’t made a recipe in a long time, but I wanted to try to make something a little healthier, but of course still tasty. I used a little bit less salt and sugar to flour ratio, as well as cut the butter a tiny bit. I also used egg whites and a smaller amount of chocolate chips. I was able to get 18 cookies out of this recipe when using heaping tablespoons. They turned out very soft and yummy.

Ingredients Section:
- 7 TBS butter, softened
- 1/3 cup light brown sugar
- 1/3 cup white sugar
- 2 egg whites
- 1 TBS vanilla extract
- 2 cups flour
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- pinch of salt
- 3/4 cup chocolate chips
Directions:
- Start oven preheating to 350 degrees
- Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper
- Beat together butter and both sugars until light and creamy
- Add egg whites and vanilla, mixing well.
- Combine flour, baking soda, salt
- Add flour mixture and chocolate chips to wet mixture, and stir until combined.
- Drop by rounded tablespoons onto the cookie sheet (I got 18 out of this recipe)
- Bake for 9-10 minutes.
- Allow to cool for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes about this recipe:
- I used regular sized semi-sweet chocolate chips for this recipe, but I think that miniature chocolate chips would work rather well, considering they would disperse amongst the dough better.
