Recipe: Chocolate Chip Cookies (low fat)

Chocolate Chip Cookies (low fat)
rec.food.recipes/Megan Perks (1997)
about 2 1/2 dozen cookies

This cookie has half the fat and half the chips of ordinary chocolate chip cookies. Miniature chips give the illusion of more chips because they distribute so well.

1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup margarine, softened
1 tsp. vanilla
1 egg white or 2 Tbsp. egg product
1 cup all purpose flour
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 cup miniature semi-sweet chocolate chips

Heat oven to 375 F. Mix sugars, margarine, vanilla, and egg white in large bowl. Stir in flour, baking soda and salt. Stir in chocolate chips. Drop dough by rounded teaspoonfuls about 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until golden brown. Cool slightly, remove from cookie sheet. Cool on wire rack.
