CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES - LOWFAT Recipe

Recipe

Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. (325 F for dark pans). Lightly spray two nonstick baking sheets (preferably insulated) with oil.
In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda and salt until well combined. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, using a handheld electric mixer set at high speed, scraping down the sides of the bowl often with a rubber spatula to force the mixture into the blades, beat the brown sugar, granulated sugar and butter until the mixture resembles coarse bread crumbs, about 1-1/2 minutes.
In a small bowl, beat the egg, oil, corn syrup and vanilla. Pour into the butter / sugar mixture and beat until combined. Add the dry ingredients and the chocolate chips. Using a spoon, stir just until a stiff dough forms.
Using a heaping teaspoon for each, roll the dough into 1-inch balls. Place them 2 inches apart on the prepared sheets (the cookies will spread during baking).
One sheet at a time, bake until the cookies are lightly browned, 10 to 12 minutes. The cookies will seem soft, but they will crisp as they cool. Cool in the pan for 1 minute, then transfer the cookies to a wire cake rack to cool completely.
