Give-Aways

I have spent the last 2 hours reading your newsletter and wonderful recipes. I have already printed a whole bunch I want to try. I love them because they are using ingredients one has on hand. I love that and just wanted you to know how much we appreciate all your hard work in putting together this newsletter. Thank you very much.

Brown Sugar Replacement


Hi Dan,

I've never responded back to you because my computer is never working properly (and I wasn't sure what I'd say!). think I have some kinks worked out now and I feel like you are a close family friend who has never given up on me.

I was in a terrible auto accident yesterday and my darling new car (an HHR Chevy with many everythings) was totaled. My passenger and I are at our homes now with no bloody injuries or broken bones, and counting our blessings. We're both terribly bruised and battered though and miserable.

Well anyhow, I'm seeking solace at my computer and this recipe looks so good..... can you recommend a substitute for the brown sugar? I hope you are well and that 2008 becomes a wonderful year for you.

Thank you for your personable and sincere communications to us out here.

Hi Elaine,

I'm so glad you weren't seriously injured in your car wreck. What a blessing! I hope you can recover physically and emotionally as well.

When I want to replace sugar in a recipe, I use a ripened mashed banana.

The texture may change somewhat from the original recipe, but the flavor and sweetness is great. I would add up to 1 cup mashed banana for the 2 cups of brown sugar. If you wish to replace the additional brown sugar, you can use brown Splenda.

To simply reduce the amount of sugar in cookies, bars, and cakes, use only 1/2 cup sugar in recipe for every 1 cup flour.

Get well soon,

Desi @ DVO
