I made 2 loaves of this. One to keep and one to give. I ended up going back and making 2 more loaves for other friends once they got a taste. It worked equally well with the Splenda as with sugar and my dad, who is a diabetic RAVED on his loaf. Thanks Denise...I've added this to my file and will be making it again!
