Cream Cheese Chocolate Chip Christmas Cookies

Cream Cheese Chocolate Chip Christmas Cookies

Cookies, cookies, cookies!  They are everywhere this time of year.  Get it together, WLCers, you know you can’t eat just any old cookie.  Here’s a recipe for a batch that you’ll love, and they won’t kill your weight loss plan.  In moderation, of course.

  • 1 package of cream cheese, room temperature (sour, sweet)
  • 2 sticks of butter (1 cup), room temperature (sweet)
  • 2 TBS stevia powder (sweet)
  • 2 large eggs (sweet)
  • 2 cups of GWF Baking Mix (sweet, salty)
  • 1 package of as-dark-as-you-can-get-em chocolate chips (bitter, sweet)
  • 2 tsp grated orange zest (bitter
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  With an electric mixer, beat together butter, cheese, & stevia powder until light and fluffy.  Add vanilla and eggs, one at a time and beat on high until well mixed.  Add chips and orange rind and stir until just mixed.
  2. Drop teaspoons of dough onto an ungreased cookie sheet about 1 inch apart and bake for 12-14 minutes, or until golden brown and firm to touch.
  3. Transfer to a cooling rack.  Can be stored for 1 week in an air tight container in the refrigerator.

Really, the hardest part of the holiday office parties are the baked goods: the cakes, cookies, candies that remind us of Grandma’s house.  If you bring a few of these with you, eat the privately if you want to, you will be able to resist the rest!

You can get GWF Baking Mix at the Heavenly Bodies Clinic or by ordering online.
