You can easily make the calorie content of this recipe 5x's lower by using splenda instead of sugar (1 Cup of Splenda), use diet mt. dew instead of regular (8oz is plenty) and finally use light butter in replacement of "full" butter. Other than that it's a great yummy easy recipe!!! Enjoy the lighter side!!

Tastes great but not overly healthy. I change it up a little. I prefer a sweet apple to a tart one. Gala, or Fuji apples. Second Change the sugar to Honey and Reduce the amount to only 1/2 cup of honey. Third use the "big" crescent rolls instead of regular ones as they cover the apples better. Lastly sub reg Mountain Dew to Diet, if you need to watch the sugar intake. (Why honey instead of sugar? Calorie to calorie a table spoon to table spoon they are the same however.... Honey is broken down in the body completely different than sugar is. So someone with problems with sugar could eat honey easier than cane sugar. Also honey is naturally sweeter thus you only need 1/3 of what the recipe calls for on the sugar/calorie content. )

It's been quite an adjustment getting use to the season changes again!
