Has anyone tried a flourless chocolate ganache cake using part or all splenda?

Please check out the web site hungrygirl.com. She also has a cookbook. I have posted in two places already, but this seems to be the appropriate spot. This site has tons of lower-fat, lower-calorie, lower-carb versions of desserts, restaurant food, fast food favorites, modified junk food, etc. If you have a craving for a forbidden food, hungrygirl modifies it. A dessert that would normally be 160 carbs may be modified to 50 carbs. Note that all her recipes are not healthy food. But acceptable for splurges. Very tasty. I suppose there are some that find it acceptable to have chocolate chip pancakes, strawberry shortcake and taco salad every day, LOL. As hungrygirl states in her book "I am not a nutritionist, just hungry." When you must have something forbidden and/or sweet, I think you will find a more acceptable version on her site. P.S. All nutritional information, carbs, fat, calories, etc. is listed for each recipe.
