What would be a perfect little treat to have with that hot chocolate you're sipping right now? Chocolate chip cookies of course!

These little treats are very healthy- And with just the right amount of sweetness, it's sure to please your sweet tooth.

~Makes about 24 cookies~

2 cups all-pupose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 stick of butter (softened)
1 1/2 cup dark brown sugar
2 eggs
1 cup apple sauce
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chunks
Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees-

In Kitchen-Aid mixer, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Then in medium bowl combine butter and sugar and mix well. When done, add two well beaten eggs, apple sauce, and vanilla extract to butter and sugar mixture.

Combine all wet ingredients with all dry ingredients and mix until smooth, starting at medium speed gradually to high.
Add the chocolate chunks while mixing at slowest speed.
On two none stick pans, spoon cookie dough onto cookie sheet. Place cookies three across and four down.

Place in oven and bake until golden, about fifteen-twenty minutes.

I hope you enjoy these tasty little treats. They're wonderful with tea or coffee.

Enjoy!
