    From Fiona Haynes, your Guide to Low Fat Cooking
    The season of holiday baking is under way, so this week we're focusing on some lighter versions of our favorite holiday sweet treats.

    Chocolate Crinkles
    These low fat, low calorie chocolate crinkles taste anything but! Make a batch for your next cookie exchange, and feel free to add a teaspoon of peppermint for a seasonal twist.

    Cranberry Oatmeal Cookies with Mini Chocoate Chips
    These delightfully soft and chewy cranberry oatmeal cookies have a little sprinkling of mini chocolate chips, making them an irresistible lower-fat cookie for the holidays, or any other time you're looking for a healthier sweet treat.

    Sugar Cookies
    A lighter but no less satisfying sugar cookie makes the perfect canvas for your decorating skills. Use plenty of colorful sprinkles before baking, or drizzle some colorful gel or glaze for a festive touch.

    Holiday Thumbprint Cookies
    It's hard to dispense with butter completely when making some kinds of cookies, and these delightful jam-filled thumbprints certainly benefit from a small amount.
