Low Sugar Chocolate Chip Cookies
These chocolate chip cookies are lower in sugar, thanks to calling for half sucralose sweetener, and half brown sugar. Use a good quality dark chocolate, with at least 70% cacao. You can choose to omit the nuts, if desired. These freeze well.

150g light brown sugar + 300g chocolate =/= a "Low Sugar" recipe. By my calculations each cookie has 6.7g of sugar, which is actually higher than shop-bought biscuits. - 26 Apr 2017
