*** The homemade candy
Perhaps you will note the date as Valentines day. It is very hard to think of what to get a man for such a day other than candy. And what do you do when your Valentine is on a Diet? I did my best to make something sweet that was not too horrible. I modified Tiffany's truffles, http://www.tiffanys-kitchen.com/?p=408, to fit better within out diet. I used whole wheat flour, I can't believe its not butter, splenda brown sugar, fat free sweetened condensed milk, and I did add the walnuts. I dipped a few of them like normal, but most of them, I just drizzled the candy coating over. So we were able to get the taste of chocolate, but not all the fat.
