Healthy Peanut Butter Buckeye Cookies

I wanted to make a healthy chocolate peanut butter buckeye recipe, but I was having a lot of trouble so I changed my plans.  I decided as long as my treat had a good mix of peanut butter and chocolate, it would be good.  So…

Healthy Peanut Butter Buckeye Cookies

  • 2 pouches of PB cookie mix ( I love this stuff!  It’s easy and cheap and low fat.  PB cookie has 3g. of fat in the mix)
  • 4 egg whites
  • 1c. unsweetened applesauce
  • 1c. mini dark chocolate chips (any chocolate chips would work)

Mix all of the ingredients together and bake at 350 degrees.  The key to making these taste like a buckeye is to only cook them for a few minutes. I think I cooked them in a 9×13 for only about 10 min.  They were not at all done when I turned off the oven.  I left them in the warm oven for about an hour, so they were cooking a little but not a lot.  Then you can either cut them into little squares or can you “ball” them up, to get that buckeye feel.  They are delicious!  I don’t think I major OSU fan will buy the idea, but that’s ok!
