Chocolate Covered Chocolate Sandwich Cookie (1 Sandwich)

Have a smaller portion—such as one cookie—and avoid eating additional sweets with it.

Eat the cookie after a balanced meal containing protein, fiber, and healthy fat, for example eggs with vegetables or grilled chicken with a salad.

Pair it with a small handful of almonds, walnuts, or peanuts rather than eating it alone.

Take a 10–20 minute easy walk after eating to help your muscles use circulating glucose.

Avoid sugary drinks, juice, or sweetened coffee alongside the cookie; choose water, sparkling water, or unsweetened tea instead.

If possible, choose a smaller, less heavily coated cookie or a dark-chocolate-covered option with lower added sugar.
