Ingredients

• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar
• 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 large Egg white
• 0.5 cup Dark chocolate chips (low fat or semi-sweet)
• 2 tablespoons Dark chocolate, melted (for drizzle)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the unsweetened applesauce, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.

Step 4

Add the egg white to the wet mixture and whisk until well combined.

Step 5

Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Gently fold in the dark chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed in the dough.

Step 7

Using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop, portion out the dough into 12 equal balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.

Step 8

Flatten each cookie slightly with the back of a spoon or your fingers, as they will not spread much during baking.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops appear slightly dry. Be careful not to overbake.

Step 10

Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Once the cookies are completely cool, drizzle the melted dark chocolate over them using a spoon or piping bag for a decorative finish.

Step 12

Allow the chocolate drizzle to set before serving. Enjoy your low-fat triple chocolate cookies with a glass of milk, coffee, or tea!
