(Low Fat) Chewy Chocolate, Chocolate Chip Cookies

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Makes 12 – 15 Cookies

¾ Cup all purpose flour (use any combination of white to whole wheat flour that you want, I used all whole wheat!)

¼ Cup cocoa powder

¼ tsp baking soda

½ tsp coarse salt

¼ Cup butter, at room temperature

½ Cup white, granular sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 large egg

¼ Cup fat free sour cream

2 tbsp cold, strong coffee

½ Cup large chunk, dark chocolate chips

–  Preheat your oven to 325.

–  In a large bowl combine the flour, cocoa, baking soda, and coarse salt.

–  In another large bowl combine all the other ingredients EXCEPT for the chocolate chips; those come soon!

–  When the liquid ingredients and mixed together, slowly add in the dry ingredients.

–  When your dough/batter has come together then gently mix in the chocolate chips (told you!).

–  Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper (skip this step if you’re out, it just makes the clean up really easy).

–  Dollop a heaping tablespoon onto the baking sheet leaving a 2 inch space in between the cookies.

–  Bake for 15 minutes.

Notes:

1. I didn’t find it necessary to coat the chocolate chips with flour before adding them to the dough/batter.
2. Just use what’s left in the coffee pot from your morning coffee.
3. Please use whole wheat flour.
