The perfect chocolate chip cookie should be soft, chewy, and crispy, all at the same time, with just the right amount of chocolate chips.
Recipe Summary Healthier Chewy Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies
Carrots are not normally found in cookies, but they act as a great natural sweetener while adding moisture. I also replaced half the chocolate chips with dried cranberries. These cookies are tasty and a good source of fiber.Ingredients | Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipes
½ cup butter, softened
¼ cup non-fat plain yogurt
1 cup packed light brown sugar
½ cup white sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
3 cups quick cooking oats
1 cup chopped walnuts
½ cup semisweet chocolate chips
¼ cup carrots, shredded
¼ cup dried cranberries
Directions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
Beat butter, yogurt, brown sugar, and white sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth. Add eggs one at a time. Beat in vanilla extract. Mix in flour and baking soda until just incorporated. Fold in quick oats, walnuts, chocolate chips, carrots, and cranberries. Roll dough into walnut-sized balls and place 2 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets.
Bake in preheated oven until cookies are golden brown, about 12 minutes. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
