Weight Watchers Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe

Ingredients:
– 2 tbsp light butter, softened (I like Brummel and Brown Spread)
- 2 tsp canola oil
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, dark-variety
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/8 tsp table salt
- 1 large egg white
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 3 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips, about 1/2 cup

Directions:
Preheat oven to 375ºF.
In a medium bowl, cream together butter, oil and sugar. Add vanilla, salt and egg white; mix thoroughly to combine.
In a small bowl, mix together flour and baking soda; stir into batter. Add chocolate chips to batter; stir to distribute evenly throughout.
Drop rounded half-teaspoons of dough onto one or two large nonstick baking sheets, leaving a small amount of space between each cookie. Bake cookies until golden around edges, about 4 to 6 minutes; cool on a wire rack. Makes 24 servings.

Serving size is 2 cookies
Each serving = 1 Weight Watchers Point

  • Jane G.

    This recipe was posted in 2009. What is the Points Plus for this recipe? Tried a WW oatmeal cookie recipe and didn't like it, so would like to try this one :-)

  • Lindsey

    Greate simple and tasty recipe… i like it so much…

  • Lindsay

    These are great. I suggest greasing the pan, because they can be tricky to remove.

    Good question! I don't think the calorie difference will be enough to change the point value, but to be on the safe side, just compare the calories listed on the nutritional info labels of the chocolate chips when you are at the grocery store.

  • Jen

    I can't wait to try this recipe, but I do have a question. Will the point value change if I use milk chocolate chips? I do not like semi-sweet. Thanks!

  • Tara

    This recipe is okay…

    I've been trying to perfect baking chocolate chip cookies with brummel for a few years now. They always turn out fluffy. I'm not on weight watchers (just a health nut) so I thought this recipe might be the solution I was looking for since I hadn't thought of adding canola oil. It didn't work, the cookies still turned out fluffy (with butter, they seem to flatten, then puff up just a bit. With brummel, they never get dense.) Also, these cookies are very small when you follow the recipe exactly. So, the second time I just made 12 bigger cookies.

    If you're looking for just something sweet, this cookie will do the trick. If you're looking for a good healthy cookie I'd recommend doing half butter and half brummel. (I also used a few more chocolate chips, used whole wheat flour and a little flax seed meal).

    You probably won't find the light butter in a stick form — you'll wanna get a tub version. You can also try Smart Balance butter, though my fave is the Brummel and Brown Spread.

  • Rebecca

    I cannot find a light stick butter, even the one you mentioned, what other brands do you suggest?

    This picture is just a generic chocolate chip cookie pic, but the Weight Watchers cookies do look about the same – just smaller. They are bite size, but they do make a great small snack when you need to satisfy that craving! Plus, they are just so darned cute!

  • Kellianne

    Hi~

    I just started WW and so glad I found your wonderful site!! Love everything about it.

    Is the photo of these cookies from the actual recipe? They look amazing!

    48 cookies from this small recipe must produce tiny cookies…more like a one bite drop…but when a craving hits, YUM! Thanks so much for sharing your recipe adventures.

  • http://www.laaloosh.com/ LaaLoosh

    That's an actual Weight Watchers Recipe. But the cookies are quite small…not the regular sized chocolate chip cookies you are imagining. :)

  • DivaDivine

    Just curious…where is this recipe from? It seems to decadent to only be 1 point per serving!
