A good substitute for butter in most baked goods is yogurt or apple sauce. I prefer non-fat vanilla yogurt. This will help to cut down on fat.

Honestly, some of you need to realize this recipe is not supposed to be completely healthy for you, but just a better alternative. If you have a sweet tooth you might as well indulge in one of these as oppose to a white flour cookie which is not processed as easily. Just enjoy, personally, I prefer this recipe rather than any white flour ones, just substitute stevia or truvia for the sugar and your saving yourself more calories and fat.

Come on people, using Splenda, NutraSweet, Sucralose is NOT a good choice either. Do your research....this stuff is bad. I have a friend who is a Neurosurgeon....he can tell by looking at brain tissue of patients in surgery who use these products.The brain tissue is a different color!!! Some day the FDA will fess up that these products are not safe. The chemical in Nutrasweet was orginally being developed as a pestiside. Like I said, do the research!!! SMALL amounts of SUGAR are a better choice.
