Just made Splenda's Choco Chip Cookies as seen on their website and they came out sooo yummy. I made a couple small substitutions tho. I used 1/2 cup of splenda brown sugar blend instead of the 2/3 cup each of brown sugar and splenda granular the recipe called for. I also used 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips and 1/2 cup heath toffee bits instead of 1 cup of regular chocolate chips. The cookies taste soooo amazing! =) They didn't come out quite right (I probably didn't use enough splenda brown sugar blend) cos they spread a bit too much and were still raised in the center. But boy are they tasty! This was my first time ever baking cookies from scratch on my own so I am glad they were a success! Updates will follow with modified recipe and pictures!

I keep trying to transfer my pictures from my microSD on my phone into my camera and onto the laptop but no luck yet. Will try again tomorrow with the pc instead. grr. sorry for the delay!
UPDATE 3 7/31 6:27 pm
Couldn't upload pix onto the pc either. Tried assorted things including using a different microSD to SD adapter and using my dad's camera, but no luck. I've got some sort of issue with the microSD communicating to adapters. Then I figured since that wasn't working I tried sending the pix in a multimedia message (MMS) from my cellphone to my email, but I had issues with that too. Couldn't send or receive MMS. Called up AT&T on the 28th regarding the issue. Talked to two different people and we tried some things but no luck. They told me to call up Samsung who make my phone to help me reset it. When I tried calling the were unavailable so had to wait till day before yesterday (29th). So I called them up again and got my phone reset and tried to resend the original msg. No luck there. They told me there was nothing else they could do and I could either send my phone in to get repaired for $70.65 (odd amount if you ask me) or I could call back up AT&T Tech Support. So I called back AT&T and spoke to a third person over there and we tried some of the original steps again (which Samsung had me try) and voila...it just worked... So now my phone is fixed but I still can't send the message to my email. I was told that if I send a mms to another phone it won't cost me anything extra but if I send to an email it will cost more for data charges so I was at a loss for what to do. Asked my friend Dan who's a bit tech-y and he told I could just buy a sync cable for it. So for the rest of that day and most of yesterday I searched for a reasonable price for the cable and i checked ebay like crazy but most were in hong kong and didnt have the cd to help set it up right. Finally I did a google search and came across this American company who had it with the setup CD..all for $2.54! I read online it could cost $40 from samsung????? yikes! that's insane! So I just ordered it from http://www.suntekstore.com/3-4ft-USB-Sync-and-charge-Cable-%5E%5ECD-for-Samsung-A767-A137-A867-i907.html. Cost $2.54 + free shipping + insurance! =D Should be here in a couple of days and I'll set it up immediately and finally upload the pix of my cookies to this blog! =D YEY!!!!!!!!
UPDATE 4 8/7 4:06 PM
I am still waiting on that sync cable to arrive. The listing said it would ship first class mail with insurance but it's still a no-show. Hoping to get it tomorrow-again! Seems like I'm constantly waiting for tomorrow with it. :(
Sounds really tasty!!!!!!!!!
