As some of you Stroller Strides moms may know, I have a weakness for reality tv. I also have a weakness for sweets. One of the 'stars' of the Real Housewives of NYC has a whole-foods baking company and if you watched the show, you got to see her standing around at various festivals & grocery stores promoting her products. My interest was definitely peaked when I saw her with cookies- so I did a little research & found this recipe at Health.com. Looks good to me! She also has a low-cal mojito and 'skinny girl margarita' that sound amazing! Check it out!Ingredients

I'm going to bring these to playgroup tomorrow & you guys can tell me if they're good!
mine looked NOTHING like the picture but they were good! Really good & since we were out of canola oil, I used applesauce & a tidge of butter- so besides the sugar, barely anything bad in there!
