Chocolate Chip Cookies

This is based on the standard Toll House cookie recipe with some alterations to make them a bit more healthy. (The whole wheat flour makes them a bit more filling and cutting the butter down helps with the fat.)

You'll need:

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 1/4 cups whole wheat flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup softened butter
• 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
• 3/4 cup sugar
• 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 2 large eggs
• 2 cups chocolate chips

And how to do it:

• Preheat oven to 375
• Mix both flours, baking soda and salt in a small bowl
• In a large bowl, beat butter, applesauce, sugars, and vanilla until smooth
• Add one egg at a time, beating each into it the sugar and butter mixture
• Add the flour a little at a time into the butter mixture
• Fold the chocolate chips into the batter
• Drop by spoonfuls onto baking sheets covered in parchment paper
• Bake for 7-8 minutes
• Cool on wire racks covered in waxed paper

This should make somewhere around 4 dozen cookies or so.
