Sweet Sunday

For those of you that know me well, you know that I'm a recipe substitute'r. Whenever possible, I will mix up the ingredients to make it as low fat as possible. No oils. No butter. Fat free milk. Egg substitute. I'll admit they don't always turn out the greatest and I don't usually give them to the neighbors but my husband 9 times out of 10 loves them. And poor Chase - well he doesn't know any different. ;)

Now I know the words "fat free" and "desserts" don't usually go hand-in-hand but trust me on this one - this recipe is delici-o-so! Spritz with some Spray Butter and heat in the micro for a few seconds and you'll be going back for seconds.
