Remember how my first attempt at making a Solo Cookie needing some tweaking? Well, I did it! Not without one more failure, though…
Solo Cookie attempt #2:
Delicious, but still too cake-like. Grrr. Attempt #3 was going to take place tonight, but the anticipation was killing me…
Ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner!
Solo Cookie
dry ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons whole wheat flour
- 1 tablespoon ground flax
- 1/8 tsp baking soda
wet ingredients:
- 1/2 tablespoon real butter (melted)
- 1 tablespoon apple sauce
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1/8 teaspoon vanilla extract
mix-ins: whatever you want!! But I used:
- 3 macadamia nuts, crushed
- 1/2 tablespoon white chocolate chips
directions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheet with parchment paper (or just 1/4 of the sheet since you’re only making one cookie). Combine dry ingredients. Whisk together wet ingredients in a separate bowl. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and combine. Add mix-ins. Form cookie on sheet, and bake for 10 minutes (or until a toothpick comes out dry).
Now THAT’S a cookie. It turned out soft and chewy – everything a cookie should be. So the next time you’re in the mood for a cookie but don’t want to be tempted by the entire batch, you know what to do!
Lunch today was not nearly as exciting, but still quite delicious.
I stir-fried about half of a chicken breast with a frozen pepper & onion mix. Then I sprinkled on some chia seeds and mixed it all together with macadamia butter. Yes – macadamia butter. Don’t knock it ‘til you try it!
Work has been slow today, if you couldn’t tell 
But I’ve got to run. Check back later for today’s vlog! xoxo G
- What mix-ins will you add to the Solo Cookie?
- Don’t forget to enter my NuNaturals giveaway!
That sounds so good! So simple too. Definitely making one!
Ok that is seriously genius! I never bake, well, anything because I ALWAYS end up wanting the whole batch. I need to try this!
You are a cookie genius! White chocolate and macedamia nut are my fave! And I’ll def have to try macedamia nut butter too!
That solo cookie sounds amazing..I would add some dried cherries and chocolate chips!
Oh yeahhhh! The solo cookie I’ve been waiting for! I’m definitely gonna make some with white chocolate chips and dried cranberries - YUM.
Nice work! Applause. I would have to add in some dried fruit or for my sweet tooth some choco chips.
Yayy you did it! This looks amazing - I want to make one!
So glad you perfected this recipe so that I can benefit from it
Thanksss!
Congrats for perfecting the solo cookie! I will definitely have to try it - and I need to ask my mom to STOP BUYING COOKIES bc I just can’t stop eating them. Sheesh. Looking forward to your “vlog” later - you actually inspired me to vlog, and I think it’s quite fun!
Awesome job on the solo cookie recipe!
That cookie looks great! I’m thinking some chocolate chips would be a great addition!
ALLE-FREAKIN-LUIA! The long awaited recipe (and yes, i do consider one day to be a “long wait” when cookie are involved) so glad I just bought some flaxseed. I think it’s fate.
mm sounds so good, however not a fan of macademia nuts…i can sub for almonds!!! lOVE this simple recipe!
YAY solo cookie! Can’t wait to try it out!
MUST MAKE THIS COOKIE! Definitely adding some chocolate chips.
Is it bad that I want to make three solo cookies? With chocolate chips, of course.
I love the idea of making solo cookies so you don’t have the rest of the batch hanging out tempting you!
Yum! That’s a good idea to help me keep my portions in check.. i always eat too many cookies when i make them
White Chocolate Macadamia cookies are my FAVE! I will be trying this out pronto
Recipe bookmarked!! Oooh i’m going to have to try it with peanut/almond butter and maybe some carob chips! Or butterscotch.
YUMM. Thanks love!
niiiiice! I know I’ll be trying these!
HOORAY SGITK everywhere rejoice!
(thats single girls in the kitchen.)
Yeah, perfect cookie.
i’m jealous by your baking skills
I love it! I’m a cookiemonster so having the option of only baking a solo cookie (or a couple solo cookies) is such a great idea! I know myself and I know I’ll keep going back for more when the whole batch is sitting around, so this is great!
Perfect!! A single cookie is just what I need. woohoo!
I totally bombed on my attempts at making breakfast cookies. That one looks delish, like a pancake of sorts. YUM

[...] Gracie’s Solo Cookie recipe! (Girl Meets Health) [...]
AH this is perfect for when i need dessert but have nothing in the house and don’t feel like baking up a whole batch of cookies! youre the best
yay!! Can’t wait to try this!
I love frozen veggie mixes..its a quick, easy way to get your veggies in any meal..and they are already soft so you don’t have to steam!
[...] Since I always seem to have the remnants of canned pumpkin hiding somewhere in the back on the fridge, I decided that making a Solo Cookie was a good move. Apparently pumpkin can take the place of just about any ingredient, so the recipe for this particular SC is a bit different from the original. [...]
