When making cookies and squares, I never find that I need as many chocolate chips or nuts that the recipe calls for. Manufacturers are trying to sell their product. I don't believe in reducing the amount too much, but by only putting in what is needed, I have reduced the fat content of the sweets and have some ingredients left over for the next batch. - Kathy

You can also replace the fat with applesauce for even lower fat cookies.
