I must start this by saying: Forgive the plain-Jane picture. I had planned to play around with some of cookies and take pictures, but these things are so darned good that I remembered my plan the second I finished the last one. Oops.
May I introduce you to Sweet Corn Lace, straight from Alice Medrich's Chocolate and the Art of Low-Fat Desserts. The other night, I wanted to extend my baking reach and try out some cookies I've never had before. Since I also wanted to be free of the allure of sugary death, I hoped to find something relatively healthy as well. Enter Sweet Corn Lace.
This delicate cookie is much simpler than it looks to make, and has a delicious, light, and sweet finish. Basically, it tastes like a sweeter, cinnamon-tinged homemade corn flake. The only problem is -- they're so light and airy, and taste so much like the cereal, that it's quite easy to eat them all. Luckily they're only 18 calories a cookie. Continue through the jump to check out the recipe, and if you try them, let me know what you think!
