Healthy Chocolate Crinkles Recipe

Diabetes Recipe
This classic chocolate cookie recipe gets a healthy makeover with no butter, less sugar and whole wheat flour. A sprinkling of powdered sugar on these Chocolate Crinkles makes them a pretty holiday treat.

Ingredients

    • 4 oz bittersweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
    • 1/2 cup canola oil
    • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
    • 2 tsp vanilla extract
    • 1 egg
    • 2 egg whites
    • 1 cup all-purpose flour
    • 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
    • 1/8 tsp salt
    • 1/2 tsp baking powder
    • 1/2 cup confectioners sugar

Preparation

    • In a microwave-safe bowl, microwave chocolate on high for 20 seconds, stir, and continue to microwave at 10-second intervals until melted.
    • In a large bowl, mix chocolate, oil, granulated sugar and vanilla. Stir in egg and egg whites. In another bowl, combine flours, salt and baking powder. Add flour mixture to chocolate mixture and stir until combined. Cover; refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight.
    • Preheat oven to 350°. Lightly coat baking sheets with nonstick cooking spray.
    • Roll dough into 3/4-inch balls. Place confectioners sugar in a shallow bowl. Roll balls of dough in sugar to coat. Place about 2 inches apart on baking sheets. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until springy to the touch. Immediately transfer to a wire rack to cool.
