I tried this recipe. I'm not a big fan of the corn flakes. It came out crumbly. Maybe I did something wrong.

I recommend real sugar instead of splenda, which barely cuts calories and is linked to cancer. source: http://www.fitclick.com/weight_loss_tips

The catch is to eat ONE piece, but only if you make the changes finnfras suggests! I wonder--is the author diabetic or an expert? Substituting splenda for sugar helps--but milk, cornflakes, etc. have tons of carbs, too, making me think there's some confusion here. But with finnfras's changes, it might fit into someone's plans. It's really important to know the carb count per slice, as too many diabetics (like the rest of the population) have serious problems with portion control. This sounds like a decent choice if you can stick with ONE piece!

why does it have corn flakes in it, and can you make regular fudge and just use splenda instead of sugar> do you need to add peanut butter>
