  • Do you need to coat the craisins and pecans with the dry mixture before adding so they won't go to bottom? I really like the sound of this recipe and it being "healty" really motivates me as I've been neglecting the healthy aspect of my diet lately, which also transfers over to my girls as well. Thanks so much!

  • I haven't found anything as good as Splenda. Can you get it on the internet?

    Craisins are a cross between Cranberries & Raisins.
