    Incredible!
    Making these as we speak--my little sister loves helping me bake, and had a blast with the sifter.

    used splenda instead of sugar, and ended up buying light cream cheese frosting instead of making my own.

    My little sister licked the spoon as eagerly as unhealthier chocolate cake. :)
