Delia, How did you use Splenda in relationship to sugar?(did you substitute Splenda altogether for sugar or partially?) Am trying to make recipes like brownies as low calorie as possible, preferably without fat or sugar. Have satisfactorily substituted applesauce for oil, and eggbeaters for eggs. But have not yet found a successful substitute for sugar and or honey,both loaded with calories of sugar. .I have tried stevia and also sweet n low (of which I don't mind the artificiality and like the taste ) but the brownies come out like rubber tires. In sweet n low recipe, it recommends to substitute just half the sugar because otherwise the texture suffers. However, I would like to try to eliminate sugar or honey altogether if possible. Any alternate suggestions?
