Try it Tuesday

This weeks Try it Tuesday: Weight Watchers Mini Chocolate Chip Cookies.  I don't think I ever shared the recipe, but if I did, it's good enough to share twice.  I first made these one snowy day last winter while the boys were outside playing with their daddy.  I didn't have chocolate chips on hand, so I substituted them with raisins and the cookies turned out just fine.  For those who use WW Points Plus, the value is 1pt per cookie. 

Ingredients

2 Tbsp butter, softened   
2 tsp canola oil   
1/2 cup(s) packed brown sugar, dark-variety   
1 tsp vanilla extract   
1/8 tsp table salt   
  1 large egg white(s)   
3/4 cup(s) all-purpose flour   
1/4 tsp baking soda   
3 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips, about 1/2 cup   

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375ºF.
  • In a medium bowl, cream together butter, oil and sugar. Add vanilla, salt and egg white; mix thoroughly to combine.
  • In a small bowl, mix together flour and baking soda; stir into batter. Add chocolate chips to batter; stir to distribute evenly throughout.
  • Drop 48 half-teaspoons of dough onto one or two large nonstick baking sheets, leaving a small amount of space between each cookie. Bake cookies until golden around edges, about 4 to 6 minutes; cool on a wire rack. Yields 1 cookie per serving.
