#679: Chocolate-Fudge Cookie Bites


I actually got this website from Weight Watchers.com.  It says that each cookie (marble sized cookie) is 1 ww+ pt.  I didn't make these marble sized...I made them bigger than that!  Who wants to eat a marble sized cookie?!  Regardless, I thought these were super yummy. Little chocolate ball bites are a perfect way to end your meal! The only thing I did not like about these cookies were the powdered sugar that is supposed to be dusted on top...so after the first batch, I stopped using it.  :)

I would absolutely make these again!!  Definitely!


1/3 c unsweetened cocoa
1/4 c margarine, softened
3/4 c sugar
4 oz unsweetened applesauce
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 c all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
2 tbsp powdered sugar

Preheat oven to 375ºF. Coat two nonstick cookie sheets with cooking spray.
Place cocoa, margarine and sugar in a medium bowl; beat with an electric mixer. Add applesauce and vanilla; beat to blend. In another small bowl, stir together flour, baking powder and salt. Stir flour mixture into cocoa batter with a wooden spoon.

Shape batter into 48 marble-sized balls. Arrange balls 1 inch apart on cookie sheets. Bake until set, about 8 minutes. Remove from oven and allow cookies to stand for 1 minute. Remove to wire rack and cool; sprinkle with powdered sugar. (Note: Store extra cookies in freezer-safe containers or plastic bags to maintain their freshness.) Yields 1 cookie per serving.
