THE HEART HEALTHIEST CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
This recipe is from The Vegetarian Times magazine, I love them, this is the recipe that I found for my cookie monster husband who has cholesterol problems, and these cookies are excellent for him, no butter, no eggs and the omegas from the nuts, and of course they are delicious . Don't forget to wait until dough is cool to add the chocolate chips or they will melt.

BETTER FOR YOUR HEART - CHEWY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES LOW FAT
You would never believe that a cookie without butter and whole eggs could be this good. I have made these several times and each time I get a "mmmm...these are really good mom!" I came across this Chocolate Chip Cookie (CCC) recipe in Cooking Light. being an AVID CCC lover I knew I had to try. These were almost as good as the original Tollhouse recipe and without the worry of added fats (ie butter, whole eggs) I feel better about eating these. The result is a thick, chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie. Oh - the original recipe didn't call for butter extract - that was my own addition...I've also skipped the chilling and everything worked out just fine! The original recipe called for corn syrup - but honey works just as well and is not nearly as bad for you as HFCS...**UPDATE** I also wanted to add that recently we have been using organic virgin coconut oil instead of canola and it gives it the yummiest, most subtle "something" flavor. We also like to use these for ice cream sandwiches - because there is no butter the cookies dont get rock hard and they keep their nice chewy consistency. You can also try my oatmeal cookie recipe, also low fat & yummy! #300761

- Preheat oven to 375°.
- Drop dough by level tablespoons, 2-inches apart on cookie sheets coated with cooking spray.

- I use Silpat liners - thus not needing cooking spray - I recommend everyone buy some Silpat liners (I've given them away to almost everyone I know!).
