Splenda for Baking

Betty, Is it alright to use Splenda instead of regular sugar in all my baking? Thank-you. --Louise
Absolutely! According to Splenda’s website, you can use Splenda granulated sweetener, cup for cup, for granulated sugar in baking recipes.

    Plain Pound Cake

    I am looking for a recipe for plain pound cake. I understand plain cake can be changed by adding a few things, but all I want is plain old-fashioned pound cake. Thank you.

    Salmon Recipe with Orange Marmalade
    Hi Granny, I am looking for a seafood recipe I thought I saw in your recipes. It was a salmon with orange marmalade dish. Did I see it on your wonderful recipes or somewhere else? Keep up the good work! Your recipes are sooooo yummy. Many thanks, --Mollie “K”

    Dressing Bake and Ham Puffs
    I had the recipe card for Chicken & Dressing Bake and also for Ham Puffs. But my 12-year-old daughter, who now does a lot of baking thanks to Grandma's recipes, has misplaced them. Can you please share the recipes? The puff recipe was one where after you bake pastry puffs, you stuff them with tuna or chicken or cheese filling. My daughter makes them for church and family gatherings and gets rave reviews. --Carol

    Do you have any problems with the vegetarian, vegan ways of eating? I don’t see any meatless, dairyless, etc. recipes being your mainstay.

    Hi Grandma! I'm kind of scared of undercooking chicken, but I don't want to overcook it, either! Can you tell me how to tell when it's done? --Alex

    Dried-Out Raisins

    How do you keep a box of raisins fresh? I use a cup or so of the box then don't use them for a couple months and when I go to use them again they are as hard as a rock. I have tried putting the box inside a sealed bag but that doesn't work.

    Leftover Roast Beef
    Betty, I had a roast of beef for dinner yesterday and now have quite a few leftovers. Have you got any great ideas for fixing it up differently -- in a casserole or some other way? Thanks, Janette
