42 Calorie Tollhouse Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients

• 40 g Light Butter (softened)
• 40 g Granular Erythritol
• 40 g Brown Erythritol
• 40 g Unsweetened Applesauce
• 40 g Egg Whites
• 1 g Vanilla Extract
• 40 g Casein Protein Powder (1 1/3 Scoop; Legion brand recommended)
• 1 g Baking Powder
• 1 g Salt
• 32 g Sugar-Free Chocolate Chips
• Extra Chocolate Chips (for topping; optional and not included in macros)

Steps

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. 2

   In a mixing bowl, combine the softened light butter, granular erythritol, and brown erythritol. Mix until well combined.

3. 3

   Mix in the unsweetened applesauce, egg whites, and vanilla extract until the wet ingredients are incorporated.

4. 4

   Add the casein protein powder, baking powder, and salt to the wet mixture. Mix thoroughly until a thick cookie dough forms.

5. 5

   Gently fold in the sugar-free chocolate chips.

6. 6

   Divide the dough evenly into 9 portions. Place them on the prepared baking sheet and lightly flatten each one.

7. 7

   Add extra chocolate chips on top of the cookies if desired.

8. 8

   Bake for 7–10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers still look slightly soft.

9. 9

   Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for at least 10 minutes to finish setting.

Notes

Using casein protein powder is important for the correct texture; if you use whey protein, the texture will be different and not as crispy. The macros for the entire batch are approximately 378 calories and 37g of protein.
