Ingredients
-
1 c. all-purpose white flour
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
2 Tbsp. unsalted butter
2 oz. reduced fat cream cheese (1/4 c.)
6 Tbsp. packed light brown sugar
6 Tbsp. granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 large egg white
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
1/2 c. semi-sweet chocolate chips, coarsely chopped or mint chocolate chips
Preparation
-
Preheat oven to 375\u00b0.
Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or spray with nonstick cooking spray.
In a medium-sized bowl stir together flour, baking soda and salt; set aside.
Melt butter in a small saucepan over low heat.
Cook, swirling the pan, until the butter turns nutty brown, 30 to 60 seconds.
Pour into a large mixing bowl.
Add cream cheese, brown sugar and granulated sugar.
Beat with an electric mixer on low speed until smooth. Add egg, egg white and vanilla; beat until well incorporated.
Add the reserved flour mixture and chocolate chips and stir with a wooden spoon just until combined.
(The batter will be runny.) Drop the batter by rounded tablespoonfuls 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets.
Bake, one sheet at a time, for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden.
Transfer the cookies to racks and let cool.
