for flavor and categorization

An excellent recipe! I made several changes for mine; 1/2c Splenda instead of 1/4c, 1/2 tsp. cinnamon, and I omitted the apricots and chocolate. I changed the 1/2c water to 3/4c skim milk and added 2 scoops of protein powder to boost the protein. I also added 2 tbs's of an imitation honey to give them a hint of honey flavor. I will definitely make again!
