Lighter Chocolate Chip Cookies

So I've kinda turned this into a baking and cooking blog, but I do intend to write more about life stuff but for now here is a recipe I created. Of course they are no Martha Stewart or Mrs. Fields, but they are pretty yummy for a lighter dessert. =)

Ingredients:

1/2 Cup Butter

1/2 Cup Applesauce

1 Cup White Sugar (Substitute can be made here, I used 1/2 sugar and 1/2 splenda)

1 Cup Splenda Brown Sugar Mix

2 Eggs

2 tsp vanilla

2 1/2 Cups white flour (brown flour can be substituted, but white tastes better) =)

2 Cups oat (oatmeal, ground finely can be done slowly in blender)

½ tsp. salt

1 tsp. baking powder

1 tsp. baking soda

1 bag of semi sweet chocolate chips

1/2 bag white chocolate chips (or whatever variety you prefer)

Directions:

Cream together the first four ingredients

Then mix in eggs and vanilla

In a separate bowl mix together all dry ingredients then slowly add them to wet ingredients

Fold in chocolate chips (At this point I divided dough into two portions, and added white chocolate chips into only one portion)

Refrigerate for at least an hour covered

Roll into 1 tablespoonfull balls. Flatten and place on greased cookie sheet.

Bake at 350 degree preheated oven for 7-10 minutes . Cool on rack

Makes about 3 dozen cookies

ENJOY =)
