Publishers Text

With the low-fat secrets in this book, you can bake your favorite cookie or brownie and eat it, too!


Originally published in Canada, where it has sold more than 30,000 copies, One Smart Cookie offers more than recipes for everything from Triple Chocolate Chunk Cookies to Cranberry White Chocolate Blondies and Cheesecake Brownies. Almost all of the recipes contain less than 30% calories from fat, the recommended intake for a healthy diet. But it's only fat that's sacrificed, not the flavor. The recipe makeovers for our all-time favorites are truly remarkable, as Van Rosendaal can attest to: she lost 165 pounds while writing this book and testing four cookies recipes a day!


One Smart Cookie also has a clear guide to Fat and all That covering nutritional strategies, cholesterol, sugar, and other vital information. There is a comprehensive section on the secrets of low-fat baking and guides to ingredients such as flours and grains, sweeteners, and more, as well as information about baking techniques such as measuring, mixing, and storing cookies. These desserts and snacks are more than just healthy alternatives to the sweets we all crave--they're the real thing!
