Yield: 18 cookies

Ingredients

1/2 cup butter or margaine, softened
1/2 cup cashew or almond butter
2 tablespoons date sugar (optional)
1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce or mashed banana
1 large egg
1/3 teaspoon powdered stevia extract
1/2 teaspoon stevia concentrate
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup milk chocolate chips or carob chips

Directions:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F. Oil a cookie sheet.
• Soften the butter or margarine. Cream the butter and cashew butter or almond butter together. Mix in the date sugar. Blend in the applesauce or mashed banana. Beat in the egg. Mix in the stevia extract, stevia concentrate, and vanilla.
• Stir the flour, baking soda, and salt together, and mix into the liquid ingredients. Add the chocolate or carob chips, and stir. The batter should be fairly stiff. Add a little more flour if necessary (1 or 2 tablespoons). You can chill the dough for easier handling.
