Here is a Weight Watchers-friendly chocolate chip cookie recipe with 6 points per serving (3 cookies):
Ingredients:
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 3.9 ounces no-sugar added applesauce
- 2 egg whites
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ cup Splenda
- ¾ cup chocolate chips (dark chocolate chips are recommended for a lower point value)
Instructions:
- In a large bowl, mix the flour, salt, baking soda, and Splenda together.
- In another bowl, whisk together the egg whites, egg, and vanilla extract.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
- Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
- Scoop out tablespoon-sized dough balls onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 12-14 minutes in a regular oven or 325 degrees for 6-8 minutes in an Air Fryer, or until the tops are golden brown.
Tips:
- Use whole-wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour for added fiber and nutrients.
- Use unsweetened applesauce instead of sugar for a lower calorie option.
- Use sugar substitutes, such as stevia or monk fruit sweetener, instead of Splenda.
- Use dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet chocolate chips. Dark chocolate is lower in sugar than semi-sweet chocolate.
