1. Cut the sugar: Substitute 2 tablespoon Splenda brown sugar for brown sugar and 2 tablespoons Stevia for white sugar.
2. Make it vegetarian or pareve: Use non-dairy margarine in place of butter.
3. Make it for Passover: Buy products that are kosher for Passover. If you cannot find
Almond Flour, grind your own almonds to a flour consistency in a food processor.
