I almost forgot! You can also ass nuts to this walnuts or pecans. I am going to try a date nut bars and maybe orange bars all with flavored cream cheese frostings. We usually order the flavored breads and cream chese from Swiss colony for Christmas morning but they are loaded with sugar and if I can make them healthy and no sugar my whole family will benifit!

Laura...these sound delicious!!!

Suebee · 11-23-2005, 09:59 PM

Sounds YUMMY, Laura... I'm no cook though, so could you tell me, bake at WHAT degrees for 45 minutes? I am having a hard enough time adjusting to cooking/baking with an electric stove since moving to Oregon... I sure miss gas!

Laura@BellaBabies · 11-23-2005, 10:11 PM

Ok I fixed it. 350 for 45 minutes. I made a second batch with 5 scoops protein and I had to lessen the baking time to 30 minutes, but it's now packed with protein!
