The changes will lower the calories, fat(by a bit), and possibly the carbs. If you like I can re-figure totals when I get a chance!!!!  |

Here ya go Hoop: I have not tried these with Splenda substitutes: For the 1/3 cup of sugar, replace with a little less than 1/4 cup Splenda for baking. for the 1/3 cup brown sugar, replace with a little less than 1/4 cup Splenda Brown sugar blend. They may not turn out, obviously as well as the regular, but heck give it a try. Nutritional value would be about 53 calories, about 5 gms carbs. If it doesn't work....let me know and I will mess around with it myself. |
