Cookies have been the downfall for many dieters and others watching what they eat, but Liz Lovely wants to change that reputation of these delicious morsels. Based in the Green Mountains of Vermont, Liz Lovely applies the principals of small, artisan baking to the cookie business.

Liz Lovely’s cookies are all made by hand in the company’s own bakery, and they’re certified vegan, incorporating ingredients that are organic and haven’t been genetically modified (non-GMO). Liz Lovely is also committed to sustainable farming and the use of fair trade chocolate. But customers’ taste buds aren’t Liz Lovely’s only concern; the company also makes sure that its employees are paid a livable wage, complete with healthcare benefits and that rarest of resources: respect.

Liz Lovely’s cookies may sound good on paper, but how do they taste? Chocoholics won’t have to worry about giving up their favorite ingredient; they’re all over Liz Lovely’s cookies!

The Cowboy Cookies include semisweet chocolate chips, a generous bottom layer of dark chocolate, and a grid of dark chocolate drizzles on top, among the organic rolled oats and walnuts. Not to be outdone, the Cowgirl Cookies stand among the softest, sweetest chocolate chip cookies you’ll ever eat. The Peanut Butter Classics brings together the classic combination of peanut butter and chocolate, while the Mochadamia Mountains mix it up with fair trade organic coffee, organic macadamia nuts, and of course, lots of chocolate. And it bears repeating: Liz Lovely uses only fair trade chocolate for these scrumptious bites.

If chocolate isn’t your calling, don’t pass up Liz Lovely’s Ginger Snapdragons, fortified with a mix of spices and blackstrap molasses. It’s a favorite among Liz Lovely’s many fans!

There’s more than one way that a cookie can satisfy, and Liz Lovely has all bases covered. In creating these mouthwatering concoctions, the company has considered the environmental and social impact of their decisions. The bottom line, though, remains the same: These tempting treats will make you forget the unhealthy and detrimental alternatives that came before.
