Another great recipe. I wonder if I can use whole wheat flower and just take off 2 Tbsp per cup and get a good result? And what if I used the brown sugar splenda - the consistency is a little denser.
ReplyDeleteGiz, I see no reason why you shouldn't be able to substitute Splenda Brown Sugar. I never used it but give it a try and let me know. Using just whole wheat flour will be heavy and bitter. I would not suggest this. It is cake after all not bread.
