You are the apple of my eye
Check out my Diabetic Beverage Dessert-Iced Cappuccino-listed on my blog. I am trying to keep both the Calorie and the Carbohydrate levels as low as possible. Depending on your level of Diabetes, results in the number of actual clicks of the insulin pen. As Diabetes is the number one disease for Asians and Indians in particular, I am trying to alter my recipes to suit the diabetic diet. I follow these recipes and I am not a Diabetic but it is just much healthier! My mother was very sick for a few years and is a Diabetic and so I had to alter all of our family recipes. When you change the poison aka food you improve your life.

Love it! 2 clicks on the insulin pen.
I was going to suggest about 5 clicks on the insulin pen this time of year, but then realized 40 bars in a 13×9 pan are about 1″x3″ each…..so maybe 2-3 clicks. Sounds yummy with all my favourite ingredients. I only have dessert about 6times/year, so you’ve already provided about 2 years worth of delights. Thanks!
My pleasure! I am very passionate about cooking and baking. I love to create new and innovative recipes. You can always pull a Sandra Lee “Semi-Homade” (That show is a joke=she is not talented at all!) and add substitutions like carob chips or no chocolate chips at all to lower the numbers. Use substitutions and subtract certain items for blood sugar levels.

There will never be another Shirley Temple, I still have the Shirley doll that my Grandma gave me so long ago! Lucky for me, my brother didn’t blow up, decapitate or bury that one like he did all of the rest! 🙁
