When I was a little girl, my grandmother was famous for her lemon pie. I was in awe of her and her baking ability. All these years later, I am fairly well known for my Chocolate Chip Cookies which are both low in fat and dairy-free. I don’t know many people who would turn down a Chocolate Chip Cookie. It is the ultimate comfort food; all that soft sweet chocolately goodness, makes for the perfect snack or dessert. These Chocolate Chip Cookies are lower in fat and hence in calories, but like anything in life, moderation is key.
