This recipe uses whole-wheat flour, plus mashed banana instead of eggs. The result? Less colesterol and fat than regular cookies.

Also, dark chocolate is healthier than milk chocolate!

Ingredients:

  • 2 ¼ cups whole wheat flour.
  • 1 tsp baking soda.
  • 1 tsp salt.
  • 1 cup nonhydrogenated margarine, softned.
  • ¾ cup white sugar.
  • ¾ cup packed brown sugar.
  • 1 mashed ripe banana.
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract.
  • 1 12-oz Packaged (or 2 cups) dark semisweet chocolate chips.

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 350. Combine flour, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl. In a large bowl, beat together margarine, White sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Add banana and vanilla extract.

Gradually add the flour mixture while beating until the mixture is smooth. Stir in the chocolate chips. Drop spoonfuls of dough about 1 inch apart onto ungreased baking sheets. Bake for about 10 minutes, or until cookies are golden brown. Let stand for a few minutes, then transfer with a spatula to a wire rack to cool.
