Notes:
These cookies are moist and chewy; low in fat and low in sugar!. I like them better the next day when they are moister and even more flavorful!.
Plan on try making these with the brown sugar Splenda and adding powdered flaxseed (good source of omega-3 fatty acids)!.

To further the flavor, refer to the tips below:
Low Calorie Low Fat Chocolate Chip Cookies
1/2 cup sugar (I would use 1/2 cup Splenda)
1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
1/4 cup margarine, softened (I would use 1/2 date puree)
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 each egg white (or 1/4 cup egg substitute)
1 cup flour, all-purpose (can use 1/2 whole wheat)
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup chocolate chips, miniature, semisweet (yes, real chocolate, no skimping here!.!.!.)
Heat oven to 375 degrees!.
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!.
Tips:
Use date puree to replace three-quarters of the butter--you'll still get a flavorful and tender cookie!.
Browning the remaining butter concentrates and boosts its flavor, adding just enough richness to mask the slight fruit flavor from the dates!.
With the browned butter, the batter is flavorful enough to allow you to cut the amount of chocolate chips back to 1/2 cup!.
IMPORTANT: To make sure each cookie contains some chips, press a portion of the chips over each dough ball just before putting the cookies in the oven!.
