Oooh... yummy *and* healthy? It can't get any better than that. I used butter and subbed walnuts with pecans, but other than that followed the recipe precisely. I found them a little too soft and cakey, but maybe if I had cooked them longer...? Anyhow, I expect that after a night in the fridge, they'll be a little harder and chewier. These have a really unique flavor that I really like. Quick, easy, healthy and tasty. You're a gem, Cornelia.

This was such an unusual recipe! But it's so good, and really does taste like butterscotch. I used applesauce for the butter, honey for the molasses, and 1/2 cup Splenda. It was plenty sweet still. I omitted the nuts & salt. They baked up nice & firm-strange for using no butter-and cut very nicely. Hopefully my husband will be fooled! Thank u for sharing.
