For most, the thought of a low fat cookie is impossible. However, in the second edition of One Smart Cookie, Julie Van Rosendaal shows us that cookies and other sweets can still taste great even when they are lower in fat. Julie is certainly an expert in the field of low fat baking through her own successful low fat bakery as well as her diet-free weight loss of 165 pounds.

The first edition of One Smart Cookie sold over 35,000 copies and is now back with a new look, new recipes and updated information on fats, fiber and recipe ingredients. These recipes have less fat and fewer calories but with all the flavour you would expect from full-fat treats. Julie also shows you how to make your own favourite recipes healthier through helpful tips on substituting ingredients.

One Smart Cookie is a great cookbook for anyone who loves sweets, but also wants to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Julie shows us that it’s possible to indulge in these tasty treats and not feel guilty. With the holiday season right around the corner, One Smart Cookie returns at just the right time!

One Smart Cookie contains 300 recipes, including:

• Triple Chocolate Chunk Cookies
• Nanaimo Bars
• Almond Macaroons
• Cheesecake Brownies

 

These treats aren’t just alternatives—they’re the real thing, just a little healthier.
