Skinny Chocolate Chip Cookies

Preheat oven to 350 F. In a large bowl combine the flour, baking powder, salt, vanilla extract, and sugar and mix well. Stir in the peanut butter and applesauce until combined well then fold in chocolate chips.

If the mixture is a little sticky for handling try refrigerating it for 30 minutes to an hour to help firm it up. Drop the dough onto a greased baking sheet by the tablespoon-sized scoop, spacing each about 2 inches apart. Bake them for about 8-10 minutes or until they are golden brown.
