Splenda
 

For those of you having trouble finding Splenda in stores, you can order it directly from their website and it's very close to the same price as the stores where I live, maybe even a little cheaper. :D

Re: Splenda
 

I've lucked out,,, my hubby went to a Sams Club where our friend's wife works. Comes home with 3 boxes of Splenda for me, each with 700 packets for only $13.00 a box.

;) do I have a nice hubby or what? LOL

Excellent.... :D
I am so looking forward to trying the delicious sounding baked cheesecake... I am not so keen on gelatine/refrigerated cheesecake..or splenda...I must go and hunt down some stevia now and get cooking!! :yay:

:thup: :thup: :thup: :thup: :thup: :thup:
I've been too the shops, now i have cheesecakes cooling and beef roasting in the oven. I adde a teeny teaspoon of really good organic lemonbuter and some lemon juice to the topping....so there is a little sugar in the topping but I used stevia for my sweetener... boy does it pack a punch! I think next time I will put the mufin tin in a water bath so the edges don't brown so much....but yum(I already had some when it was warm, and uncooked... and :blush: some of the topping....!)

Jezebel,
Which cake did you try? I sit here not knowing which one to try. Chocolate will be added to whichever one I do pick. The last time I tried one, it had such an aftertaste.

Hi, I tried Canamer's baked cheesecake... except with stevia.... I am going to experiment with this recipe to see how many different flavours I can get.. chocolate is next of course! my boyfriend didn't understand why I wouldn't let him eat them all before dinner... I told him I wanted to save some for treats, but he kept saying"why?" I think he thinks because they are so low carb the cheesecakes are a whole new food group(or macronutrient)Good skill with your cheescakes! :D

lol Jezebel. Thanks for the information. I haven't tried Stevia yet. I recently read abt a sweetner called fiber fit. I am trying to find out waht people think abt it on here. Did u like using the stevia?

:wave:
HI Nicksmom,
Stevia is certainly strong..... I kept licking the spoon I had used to measure it with and too much is strangely bitter, but the result was good, I used a miniscule amount of sugar in the topping(maybe half a teaspoon in the lemon butter) and some stevia and when I added the stevia it seemed to make the sugar itself much sweeter. I will be experimenting further but I don't reccomend trying steiva all on it's own :(

I'm off to make some cheesecake cup cakes. :devil:

I'm in heaven!
I didn't make the cheesecake muffins. I just made my regular cheesecake with Splenda and macadamia nuts for the bottom. Used less than I would sugar. 1/3 cup instead of 1/2 in the filling and only 2 teaspoons in the sourcream topping.
First time I've eaten cheesecake without a twinge of guilt in 30 years. :D

This is by far the best recipe for an easy cheesecake yet. I made it in a metal nonstick pie pan lined with Murrays sf nilla wafer cookies crushed up and a lil butter. DH is on maintanance and loves it.

I put this recipe (actually amodified combination of 2 recipes from convergent sources) in it's own thread, thinking that it would get more views that way, but was probably mistaken, having read ALL the posts here, and the general subject matter (cheesecake!), so here is reference to my "double" chocolate cheesecake (lo-carb)
for which I am insufferably proud of myself, sorry about that, sort of.
