Does anyone have a sugar free recipe for brownies that does NOT require the use of Splenda?? I HATE the flavor of Splenda. Thank you in advance for any help on this.

About twice a month we have "Nasty Casserole" around here.
It's usually a conglomeration of shit that I can find that needs to be used but generally has many of the following ingredients.

1 layer of corn tortillas
1 layer of refried beans
1 layer of cheddar cheese
1 layer of chicken cooked with cilantro, onion, garlic, cumin, chili powder, etc.
another layer of corn tortillas
1 layer of black beans
another layer of whatever cheese
a layer of red sauce or my really good sour cream sauce
and usually more layers of cheese than any human should eat
and sometimes a layer of corn
and sometimes a layer of black olives
and most of the time a good sprinkling of green onion

Its guaranteed to give you heartburn but is WAY pocketbook friendly and tastes decadent as HELL and makes a LOT.

1/3 cup fat free milk

It's cookie time at Chez Diva......I love this time of year!! The following recipe is one of my Mom's (I have her copy in her handwriting, framed and hanging in my kitchen!).....my favorite cookie of hers....and now it's also my daughter's favorite, so she'll be getting a big box of them in the next couple of weeks.

Pin Wheel Cookies

1 c. butter
2 c. sugar
2 eggs, beaten
3 1/2 c. flour
1 tsp. soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. vanilla
1 sq. bittersweet chocolate, melted OR 3 T. cocoa + 1 tsp. butter

Mix in order given (except for chocolate).

Divide in half. Add melted chocolate to one half and work it in thoroughly. Roll out each half between wax paper, then place one on top of the other.

Roll together like a jelly roll. Chill. Slice thin. Bake at 350 until light brown (about 10-12 minutes) They will spread just a bit, so don't put slices too closely together.

This is a pretty cookie.

Happy baking!

Dinner tonight:

Cheesy Chicken Chasserole

1 Can Chicken, drained
4 oz Velveeta
2 Cups Elbow Macaroni, cooked, drained
1 Can Cream of Chicken soup
1/2 Can Chicken Broth
1 TBS Garlic Powder
1 TBS Tony Cachere's Cajun Seasoning

Preheat oven to 350.

Combine everything in a casserole (0r chasserole if you are into alliteration...lol) and cook for 30-45 minutes until bubbling. This was a yummy dinner tonight but a wee bit on the runny side. Might want to add a 1/2 C of bread crumbs next time. My dinner guest liked it so I was happy.
