Fat Free Sugar Cookies That Work!

Submitted by Katie 7

"I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR A GOD FAT FREE COOKIE RECIPE AND I FOUND IT!! LOOK NO MORE!these don't necessarily have to be sugar cookies that you are making, these would probably work with molasses, cinnamon, cloves and ginger for a gingersnap or cocoa for a chocolate fudge cookie."

 

• Ready In: 30mins
• Ingredients: 9
• Yields: 10 cookies
• Serves: 10

ingredients

• 2⁄3 cup whole wheat flour (I used a mixture of this and whole wheat pastry flour)
• 1⁄2 teaspoon cream of tartar
• 1⁄4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1⁄8 teaspoon salt, eyeball it
• 3 tablespoons Splenda sugar substitute, for baking large ones
• 8 -9 tablespoons fat-free buttermilk
• 1 tablespoon plain fat-free yogurt
• 1 1⁄4 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 teaspoons Butter Buds or 2 teaspoons any other fat free butter flavoring

directions

1. Preheat oven to 450°F.
2. combine the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt in a large bowl. mix throughly with a fork, slightly fluffing the flour to create mild pockets of air in the mixture.
3. Add Splenda and mix again.
4. Add buttermilk (1 tbs at a time), fat free plain yogurt, vanilla and butter flavoring. SOFTLY AND GENTLY mix with a spoon and incorporating all the ingredients together until everything is mixed.
5. bake for about 15-20 minutes until the bottoms are browned (but not burnt) and they look done. (I have a convection oven so times may vary).
6. Note: DO NOT OVER MIX, however do not undermix. I do not know the outcome that this may have, but I have a feeling that it isn't very good!

I used fat free milk and 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder and after they cooled I frosted with 2 tablespoons of melted chocolate chips that I melted in the microwave and added some sprinkles before the chocolate set. Yummy! The chocolate chips and sprinkles add less than 10 calories per cookie. I got 12 out of the batch. I also cooked on a foil lined baking sheet sprayed lightly with cooking spray at 400 for 8-10 mins..my first batch burned at the higher temp

Wow! This did not work for me at all! This may not be a fair review, because I did make some alterations to the recipe since I didn't have the same ingredients. I used 4 tb coconut milk beverage and 4 tb sour cream instead of buttermilk and yogurt. Overall I added less wet ingredient than what it called for, so I cant imagine that my alterations made the difference. The batter was...batter. It was SO wet and sticky. I added 3 tb more flour and baked 3 cookies just to see how they turned out. They didn't. So I added more flour, about 1/2 cup and baked again. Still very not good. Sorry. I tried.
