I have NEVER seen a recipe so badly written. There are ingredients mentioned that don't appear in the list (pecans appeared out of nowhere, and what the hell is "1/2°C Smart Beat" anyway?) as well as ingredients in the list that are never used: at least one of the three (?) Splenda frosting recipes appears to have no Splenda. Try some paragraphs, or at the very least some punctuation. NO HELP AT ALL

I have never used Splena for frosting before. I whipped up a batch of brownies to satisfy the ole sweet tooth and realized I had no powdered sugar! I was in a bit of a panic as I had promised frosted brownies. I jumped on the computer and found this recipe. It saved the day! I added cocoa to taste and substituted milk for water. The glaze was nice looking and worked just fine! Yum! Thank you for posting it!
