i love cookies. i make them much too often.
i am always looking for health{ier} recipes that still deliver a sweet and satisfying taste.
here is one of those recipes. if you have another, go ahead and share it here!
Celestial Oatmeal Cookies
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup brummel & brown yogurt spread (or 1/2 stick margarine)
1 cup canned pumpkin
2 egg whites
1 teaspoon grated orange peel
1 1/2 cups flour
2 cups oats
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
for the chocoholic: 2/3 cup chocolate chips, if desired
super simple steps:
heat your oven to 350
mix up the sugar and spread until well blended
add pumpkin, egg whites and orange peal; beat well
combine dry ingredients in another bowl
add to wet mixture and mix well
stir in chocolate chips
lightly grease a baking sheet. drop dough by tablespoonsfuls on cookie sheets.
bake 11-13 minutes. do not overbake. cookie centers are soft and the shape doesn't change during baking. cool on wire racks completely.
Orange Glaze
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon orange juice
combine well.
drizzle over cooled cookies.
store tightly covered.
