White and dark chocolate chip cookies
A combination of white and dark chocolate chips gives these lighter cookies a great flavor and appearance. I usually use vegetable oil for my fat in desserts, but the margarine keeps the cookie moister.
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 5 Tbsp margarine (or butter)
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • pinch of salt
  • 1/4 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup miniature white chocolate chips
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly coat 2 baking sheets with cooking spray.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the granulated and brown sugar, margarine, egg and vanilla until well mixed.
  3. In another bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder and salt. With a wooden spoon, stir the dry mixture into the wet ingredients until everything is combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.
  4. Using a tablespoon, drop the batter onto the baking sheets. Bake for 12 minutes, for softer cookies.

Nutrition Watch: The darker the chocolate, the more nutritional benefits it has. The amount of cocoa in the chocolate is indicated by percentages; for example, chocolate with 70% cocoa is better than 50% cocoa because it contains more antioxidants. In recent studies, cocoa has been shown to have heart-protective properties.
