Product Description
Book Description
With Julie Van Rosendaal's low-fat secrets in One Smart Cookie, 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 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 percent 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 favorite sweets are truly remarkable, as Van Rosendaal can attest to: She lost 165 pounds while writing this book and testing four cookie 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.

This book is fantastic!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: One Smart Cookie: All Your Favorite Cookies, Squares, Brownies and Biscotti ... with Less Fat! (Paperback)
This is a wonderful cookbook. I've tried almost half the recipes and they've all turned out perfect. I can't believe they are lower in fat and calories - they are even more delicious and decadent than the full fat recipes I used to use! The Inside Out Chocolate Chunk are to die for, and the Peanut Butter (yes peanut butter!) cookies and Lemon Bars are the best I've ever had. I get raves when I make them! I used the tips to trim the fat from my own recipes, which is tricky when it comes to baking. I'm always trying to eat healthier and this is the first time I've felt better about enjoying cookies and other goodies. I recommend this book to anyone!

Simple, delicious recipes,
By Heather "hlr" (Ontario, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: One Smart Cookie: All Your Favourite Cookies, Squares, Brownies and Biscotti... with less fat ! (Paperback)
I bake a lot, and this is one of my favourite cookbooks. The recipes are straightforward, there's lots of variety, and every one I've tried has turned out wonderfully (and I have tried probably 30 or 40 of them!)I always get requests for the recipe when I make things from this book, and people never guess that they're less-fattening versions. I have given a couple of copies of this book as gifts and they've been much appreciated. This is my go-to cookbook whenever my family is in the mood for cookies or squares. We use it every week.

Yummy and Simple,

This review is from: One Smart Cookie: All Your Favourite Cookies, Squares, Brownies and Biscotti... with Less Fat (Paperback)
Recipes are very simple to follow, with little prep time. Even with the lack of sugar/butter, etc. the treats taste yummy, and sometimes even better. Definitely a must-have recipe book; allows you to enjoy your favourite treats more frequently without feeling guilty.
