Recipe Description
Need a festive treat to enjoy this holiday season without all the guilt? The ginger cookies are soft ‘n chewy and the eggnog dip is creamy ‘n sweet – all with fewer calories! I had to make some adjustments to the standard ginger cookie recipe, but it wasn’t anything that I didn’t already have in the house – in fact, I got to use less fattening ingredients and the cookies still looked (and tasted!) just like I hoped they would: soft and chewy and delicious.
