We had tacos tonight. I even made a pot of chili in the slow cooker for a freezer meal. <br /><br />Lainey I made bars because my back is hurting and I didn't want all that up and down from cookies. I used Purvia brand, it is sweet with very little aftertaste. I creamed the brown sugar and butter for about 3 min with the hand mixer. The bars are light and not too sweet. I will continue experimenting with stevia brands for baking and let you know how it comes out.<br />DH just announced he prefers Splenda for his cereal. So, I'll use stevia for baking. It's just like I am a Best Foods (Hellmans) Mayo and butter kind of a girl and he's a Miracle Whip and margarine kind of a guy. DD will eat either/or.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06960854781062560663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3710594054631795627.post-86599738319352553582010-02-21T20:43:11.026-08:002010-02-21T20:43:11.026-08:00So you made it kind of as a bar instead of as a dr...So you made it kind of as a bar instead of as a drop cookie? Why? Does it have to be that way if you make it the way you made it?<br /><br />I am curious about stevia. I tried it once and thought it tasted like envelope glue, but I've heard different kinds can have different tastes. I don't think I ever heard of using it in baking before. Interesting! What about the bulk that sugar gives to baked goods, though?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12409793235676670706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3710594054631795627.post-16467452247536870112010-02-21T17:58:38.283-08:002010-02-21T17:58:38.283-08:00How ironic, I made Toll house Choc chip cookies to...How ironic, I made Toll house Choc chip cookies today. The only thing I did differently is I substituted 1/4 cup of regular flour for 1/4 cup whole wheat flour. <br /><br />I am sure you have some great baking recipes too. I am anxious to make your baked enchiladas.Karsyn524https://www.blogger.com/profile/01365010720855398669noreply@blogger.com
