With Splenda and Philadelphia Cream Cheese, you have a cheesecake with 6.7 grams of carbs per serving in eight slices total. If you are losing weight on a low carb diet like me and you bake for non-dieters like me it’s good to have something quick and easy to curb the sugar cravings.

It’s also sugar free and it’s so easy. The best deal on Splenda is at Sam’s. If you are going to cut out sugar then the larger bag is the way to go. The girls are so much fun, but the weather is keeping them inside and they are going bonkers. They love to hear me sing. Imagine that! They stick their necks out and look all around to see where the obnoxious sound is coming from. LOL
I’ve been experimenting with xylitol in place of sugar. It’s more expensive than Splenda, but a natural substitute. I’ll try your low carb cheesecake with it. Looks yummy!
Please let me know how that turns out. Whenever I use Splenda I get the sneaking suspicion that I am doing something wrong and that it may be harmful, but it seems to work the best. I live in a rural area and can’t find xylitol at Walmart, but I travel to Houston or College Station every month or so to get supplies.
