Introduction

This was a recipe that called for all granulated sugar. i replaced half the sugar with splenda and saved half the calories! You can also use an actual vanilla bean for more flavor. And sometimes i add lemon zest for a change. Enjoy! This was a recipe that called for all granulated sugar. i replaced half the sugar with splenda and saved half the calories!
