    Good
    I agree with ASRIFFE about the denseness. I might add extra baking powder, I think. Also, adjust spices down to 1 tbsp each. Hated the Splenda. Think I'd use 1/2 or 3/4 cup granulated sugar in its place the next time. - 9/3/07

    O.K.
    I must have done something wrong because they were very dense. I'd try again but the family didn't like them well enough. - 8/5/07

    Incredible!
    Delicious! I love the addition of raisins and almonds. I couldn't find soy flour so I just substitued more whole wheat flour. A good flavor and not too overwhelming. - 7/29/07
