Healthy Chocolate Chunk Cookie <\/em><\/strong>Recipe<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n
This is an easy cookie recipe and comes together quickly. The texture of the cookies is soft, they are a little crumbly, but definitely not too much.<\/p>\n
These Healthy Chocolate Chunk Cookies are loaded with wholesome ingredients like whole wheat flour, high-quality dark chocolate, and cottage cheese for protein. More protein in cookies! Isn\u2019t it awesome? It\u2019s definitely fitness food for athletes, sportspeople, those who are on a diet, calorie- or macro-counting, or just healthy eating.<\/p>\n
These cookies is a perfect, healthy, sugar-free dessert, or snack that the kids and adults will approve. Enjoying them for breakfast would be more filling and satisfying than any other sugary cookies.<\/p>\n
This cookie recipe is ideal to make in advance and freeze the cookies in a zip bag for a longer period of time. $\"Healthy$ <\/p>\n
How to Make Healthier Cookies<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n
These cookies are made from whole wheat flour, but you can easily substitute it to any other flour including gluten-free. You could totally add in some nuts or\/and dried fruits, or leave them only with dark chocolate as I have. Semi-sweet chocolate chips work fine but for me is better to use high-quality dark chocolate with a cocoa solids content of 85% and above.<\/p>\n
For more flavor, I recommend adding a teaspoon of lemon zest if you have it on hand.<\/p>\n
