Spice Cookies

2 c      Whole wheat flour
1 c       Brown sugar
1 tsp.   Baking soda
4          Egg whites
1/2 c    Unsweetened applesauce
1/2 tsp. Ground cloves
1 tsp.    Cinnamon

Mix all ingredients. It's best to add the flour last.
Teaspoon size scoops on baking stone (or foil lined & sprayed cookie sheet.)
Bake 6 or 7 minutes at 350 degrees.
Makes 6 dozen small cookies. (72 cookies.)

Each cookie is 24 Calories and has no fat!  I love them!

I baked mine on a small bar pan (stoneware) a few at a time in the toaster oven.  This way, I won't be tempted to eat the whole batch.  I refrigerated the unbaked portion until I was ready to bake more.



I found this recipe in a cookbook called "Busy People's Low-Fat Cookbook" by Dawn Hall.  I tweaked the recipe a bit for my own use by exchanging the white sugar with brown. I also used unsweetened applesauce instead of regular applesauce.  This cut the calories from 39 to 24!  A great book full of wonderful ideas and worth buying!
