Yum. We really enjoyed these. I only had 2 bananas (but they were big), and used fat free vanilla yogurt. I used egg whites, all white whole wheat, 1/4 cup splenda and the rest sugar, and oat bran for the wheat germ. I also added the optional cocoa powder. Whew. But all basic subs. that should have been fine. And they were! These were moist but not too moist with a great flavor. Super easy to put together. Thanks Redsie. You have somne great low fat recipes!

Canadian girl that loves to cook for herself and for everyone around her!! I always enjoyed cooking but more so since I started taking better care of myself by eating healthier food (I am a Weight Watchers Lifetime member!). I still love my chocolate though!
