How to Make Low Fat Cal Chocolate Chip Cookies

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease with nonstick cooking spray.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce, 1/4 cup water, 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar, and 1/4 cup granulated sugar until completely smooth.
  4. Add 1/4 cup egg substitute and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  5. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
  6. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  7. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  8. Gently fold in 1 cup chocolate chips.
  9. Using a 1/2 tablespoon cookie scoop or spoon, drop rounded mounds of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch between each cookie.
  10. Ensure all cookies are roughly the same size and thickness for even baking.
  11. Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  12. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. They will crisp up as they cool.
