Weight Watchers Caramel Cookies
Only 1 Point!!
I love finding sweet treats that are points friendly! These Weight Watchers Caramel Cookies are my latest discovery!! And would you believe they are only 1 point per serving? This recipe will actually make A LOT of cookies. 60 cookies to be exact! But don’t worry….you don’t have to make all 60 cookies at one time….unless you want to. Once you make the dough, you can keep it in the fridge or even longer in the freezer. Then just slice off how many cookies you want to make at a time. Once the dough hardens, I like to put the extra in a freezer bag and then just get it out when I want more cookies!
Weight Watchers Caramel Cookies
Ingredients
- 1/2 cups of unsalted butter softened
- 1 cup of dark brown sugar packed
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 3/4 cup of whole wheat flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400.
- Use an electric mixer to cream the butter, sugar, egg and vanilla extract in a large bowl.
- Add in the rest of the ingredients and beat until completely mixed.
- Lay out a large piece of plastic wrap. Scrape all of the dough out of the bowl onto the plastic wrap and then roll it into a log. Make it about 2 1/2 inches wide.
- Wrap the dough completely with the plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator until it is firm. At least 20 minutes or you can leave it in there overnight.
- Once the dough is firm, slice it into cookies (about 1/8 of an inch thick) and place them on ungreased cookie sheets about 1 inch apart.
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until they are lightly browned around the edges.
- Allow cookies to cool completely.

Made these cookies last night, baked them off this morning. Really love the flavor and texture of the cookie, my only problem was cutting the cookies to make sure that they are an 1/8″. I am a little OCD with measurements, and since it’s WW I want to be as sure as I can be that these are exact portions. I used a serrated bread knife, but kept getting a little thicker at the bottom. I was wondering if you knew the teaspoon measurement of the cookie so that they could be scooped out, and then flattened with a glass. Or something that would help me get a better measurement. Your’s are nice and round, mine were kind of rectangular/oval. Thanks for your help.
Maybe let the dough stay in the fridge a little longer. This will really help when you’re trying to cut them in equal pieces. I would also just use a regular (very sharp) knife. I have trouble with bread knives anyway, so that may just be me. As long as you are close, you should be okay on points.
Love recipes\and trying some out too
keep smiling you all…………..
What exactly do you mean with points?
When you are on Weight Watchers, you keep track of your food by using points.
