These healthy chocolate chip cookies are thick, chewy, and contain no butter! This low sugar, easy recipe satisfies any sweet tooth!

Healthy Chocolate Chip Cookies

melted coconut oil* (cooled

applesauce

dark brown sugar

sugar

vanilla extract

egg (at room temperature)

flour

baking soda***

cinnamon

salt

dark chocolate chips (plus additional for baking)

Whisk

In a large bowl, whisk together the coconut oil, applesauce, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Then, whisk in the egg, stopping as soon as it is blended.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.

Stir

Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. With a rubber spatula, stir to combine, stopping as soon as the dry ingredients disappear. The dough will seem very stiff and dry at first. Use the spatula to gently push and &quot;smush&quot; the dough and stir and fold as needed. It will come together.

Fold

Fold in the chocolate chips. Chill the dough for at least 1 hour, or press plastic over the top and chill for up to 2 days.

Preheat

When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Arrange

With a cookie scoop or spoon, portion the dough, then use your hands to roll into balls that are 1 ½-inches in diameter (you should have 18 total). Arrange on the baking sheet, leaving at least one inch between each. Place any uncooked dough balls that do not fit on the sheet in the refrigerator to continue chilling while the first batch bakes.

Bake

Bake for the cookies for 8 to 9 minutes, until very lightly browned around the edges and feel dry on the sides and top when lightly touched. They will still appear underdone in the centers. Do not over bake or the cookies will be dry. The cookies will not spread much as they bake.

Cool

Place the baking sheet on a wire rack and let the cookies cool on the sheet for 2 minutes. Carefully remove the cookies to the rack to finish cooling completely. The cookies will be fragile at first but will firm up and their texture will improve as they cool. Repeat with the remaining dough balls, cooling the sheet completely between batches. Enjoy!

Meringue cookies are light, airy, crisp and quick and easy to make!  This cookie recipe comes together with only 4 ingredients {without cream of tartar!} to create a delicate, soft, yet crunchy melt-in-your-mouth dessert.  Perfect for any holiday or celebration or just because!

Meringue Cookies {without cream of tartar}

sugar (150 grams)

Wipe the bowl, the whisk of your stand...

Wipe the bowl, the whisk of your stand mixer and the whisk you are using to mix with vinegar or lemon juice to make sure it is grease free or your egg whites may not stiffen.

Preheat oven to 200°F.

Whisk egg whites, granulated sugar and kosher salt...

Whisk egg whites, granulated sugar and kosher salt in a heatproof bowl (I use the bowl of my Kitchen Aid mixer).  If you want less dishes to wash use the whisk to your mixer.

Set the mixture over a saucepan filled with...

Set the mixture over a saucepan filled with 2 inches of simmering water.  Do not let the bottom of the bowl touch the water.  Whisk constantly until the sugar is dissolved and is getting a little frothy, about 3-4 minutes.  (if you rub a little of the hot mixture between your fingers, it will be completely smooth with no grittiness).   Remove the meringue mixture from the saucepan and wipe the bottom of the bowl dry.

Transfer the mixture to an electric mixer fitted...

Transfer the mixture to an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment.  Beat on high (speed 8 on a Kitchen Aid) for 2-3 minutes, then add the vanilla and continue beating until stiff peaks form, about 7-8 minutes more. This time can vary based on the strength of your mixer.  The meringue should have increased in volume and be thick and glossy.

Transfer the meringue to a piping bag fitted...

Transfer the meringue to a piping bag fitted with the tip of your choice (I used a Wilton 1M) and pipe cookies onto a parchment lined baking pan.

Bake for 1 hour to 2+ hours, smaller...

Bake for 1 hour to 2+ hours, smaller cookies tend to finish more quickly.  Check the cookies after 1 hour, if they feel dry and easily release from the parchment paper with the bottom intact, they are done.  If they stick a little go another 15 minutes and check again.  Occasionally, they may take closer to 2 1/2 hours (especially in a humid climate).  When the cookies release from the parchment, turn off the oven and allow cookies to cool completely while still in the oven with the door closed, at least one hour.  I often bake meringues in the evening and let them sit in the turned off oven overnight.

The perfect blend of ceremonial grade matcha and white chocolate. These low calorie matcha cookies are soft and chewy in the center with crispy edges, what more could you want?!

80 Calorie Matcha Cookies

tbsp all-purpose/plain flour

The dough will be really soft so you can let it chill in the refrigerator for 15-30 minutes. Scoop the dough and form into 3 circles, place onto a prepared baking tray and flatten slightly. Bake the cookies for 8 minutes.

Let the cookies cool on the tray for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely.

80 CALORIE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES | low calorie cookies | low calorie desserts | low calorie snacks

A perfectly spiced, soft and gooey cookie with crispy edges, filled with sweet, tangy cheesecake filling!

68 calorie gingerbread cheesecake cookies

g (1/4 cup) Philadelphia lightest

tsp stevia

lemon juice

65 g (1/2 cup + 2 tsp) all-purpose/plain flour

60 g (1/3 cup) 0 calorie brown sugar

¼ tsp baking soda

g (2 tbsp) applesauce

½ tsp ground ginger

¼ tsp ground cloves

The first step is making the cream cheese filling and freezing them. Mix together the cream cheese, stevia and lemon juice until well combined. Scoop 6, 1 tsp portions of the filling, place onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper and place in the freezer. I like to do this bit the night before I want to make these cookies just to ensure the cream cheese is fully frozen  2 hours should do.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the 0 calorie brown sugar, applesauce, vanilla and oil until well combined. Fold in the flour, baking soda and spices and combine to form a dough.

Scoop up 1/6 of the dough, flatten with your fingers and place a ball of cheesecake filling in the center. Roll the dough into a ball ensuring the cheesecake is covered.

Repeat for the remaining 5 cookies and place onto a lined baking tray.

Bake for 10-12 minutes and let the cookies cool on the baking tray for a few minutes before transferring onto a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!

A perfectly spiced, soft and gooey cookie with crispy edges, perfect for the holidays!

Divide the dough into 3 equal balls and place onto a prepared baking tray. Flatten the balls slightly before placing in the oven. Bake for 8 minutes, the cookies may look underdone but they will bake as they cool so make sure you don&#39;t over-bake them.

Let the cookies cool on the tray for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely. Enjoy!

Low Calorie Double Chocolate Fudge Cookies | LOW CALORIE DESSERTS | easy low calorie recipes

These are the best low calorie holiday cookies! They are super soft, chewy and filled with peppermint goodness with each and every bite for just 79 calories!

80 calorie peppermint cookies

tbsp (30 grams) Stevia

¼ tsp peppermint extract

g chocolate chips

candy cane ((optional))

In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, Stevia and baking soda. Fold in the applesauce, peppermint extract, vanilla extract and oil until fully combined.

Fold in the chocolate chips and the crushed candy cane pieces.

Scoop the batter in three equal balls and place onto a prepared baking tray.

Bake for 8 minutes. Let the cookies cool on the tray for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely.

Crunchy on the outside soft on the inside, who doesn&#39;t love a good meringue cookie? These low calorie meringue cookies are the perfect low calorie treat to snack on! At just 1 calorie a cookie, these meringue cookies will have you reaching for more and more! 

1 Calorie Meringue Cookies

35 g 0 calorie powdered sweetener

Pre-heat oven to 105°C (221°F).

Place egg whites into a medium bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer. Whisk the egg whites until they begin to start foaming, about 2 minutes with an electric hand mixer. 

Add in the lemon juice and continue to whisk until the whites begin to increase in volume and become really frothy, about 2 minutes with an electric hand mixer. 

Sprinkle in the powdered sweetener, I recommend adding 1 heaped teaspoon at a time and whisking continuously. Once the egg whites start to look silky and all of the sweetener has been aded, whisk in the vanilla extract. The meringue is ready when it is super fluffy and forms stable peaks. 

Add a small amount of the meringue on the corners of your baking tray so the parchment paper will stick and create a stable base to pipe the meringue onto. 

Transfer the meringue to a piping bag fit with a nozzle and pipe the meringues onto the parchment paper. Leave roughly 1/2 an inch of space between the cookies. You should be able to make roughly 45 medium-sized cookies.

Bake the meringue cookies for 45 minutes. Turn the oven off and let the cookies sit in the oven for another hour with the door closed. They are ready when you can easily remove them from the parchment paper, they should feel firm but light and airy.
