Snackwell’s Mini Chocolate Chip Cookies
1 egg white
1/4 C. sugar
1 T. brown sugar
1 T. corn syrup
1 T. shortening
1 1/2 T. egg substitute
3/4 C. all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp. plus a pinch of salt
3/4 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 C. mini chocolate chips
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Beat the egg white until thick. Add the granulated sugar to the egg white and continue beating until the mixture forms soft peaks. While beating, add the brown sugar; corn syrup, shortening, and egg substitute. In a separate bowl, combine the flour; salt, baking soda and baking powder: Combine the dry mixture with the wet and mix well. Add the chocolate chips and incorporate them into the dough. Divide the dough in half; then roll each portion into a long, thin Jog about the same diameter as a nickel and wrap each in plastic wrap. Put the dough into the refrigerator and chill) it for a couple hours (you may also use the freezer for roughly half the time if you’re in a hurry). When the dough has thoroughly chilled, remove each log of dough from the plastic wrap and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Place slices on a cookie sheet coated lightly with nonstick spray about 1/2-inch apart, and bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until the cookies turn light brown.
