I use olive oil since its healthy and considered as good fat.
There are good fat vs bad fat.
good cholesterol vs bad cholesterol.
good carb vs bad card.
All those good stuff helps us remove the bad ones.Bad fat stays in our body and good fat melts away and olive oil considered as good fat fights back bad fat.This recipe is for weight watchers because of the oil and amount of sugar and its calorie does not exceeds more than 150 calories.If you don't care about your diet and looking for good taste then just simply add more sugar and butter.the calorie will be 250.
