low-fat pumpkin spiced chocolate chip cookies.

so, this may not be the first time you've seen these cookies because i found the recipe on Skinnytaste. i had extra pumpkin puree left over from when i made pumpkin mousse, and i wanted to use it up. so i was searching and searching and i came across these. i'm so glad i made them because they are D-E-licious and easy!

ingredients:

• 1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour
• 1/2 cup all purpose flour
• 1/4 tsp baking soda
• 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice*
• 1/8 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 2 tbsp butter, melted
• 1 egg white
• 2 tbsp pumpkin puree
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

first, mix together the first 5 ingredients.

now, whisk together the remaining ingredients (minus the chocolate chips) in another bowl until light and fluffy.

next, stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients in 2 additions. her recipe says to add a little water if the dough is too thick, but mine was just fine!

don't forget the chocolate chips!!

spoon onto a cookie sheet sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes (mine took 12).

remove from the pan and let cool on a cooling rack. or you could just eat them while they are still warm ;)

don't they look just delicious?!

*i didn't have pumpkin pie spice, and i didn't feel like spending $5 for something i will barely use, so i made my own!

ENJOY!
