    I consider myself a cook, but what is Nevella and where do you find sugar-free chocolate chips? Are you at altitude? Have you tried this recipe with egg whites or fruit puree instead of the eggs and oil - how were they? Thanks for sharing. Love pumpkin in everything this time of year.

    I was going to ask if it would work replacing the oil and eggs with applesauce.... hmmm

    Nevella is a sugar substitute just like Splenda. Measures just the same as sugar, and has probiotics in it! :smile:
    I have not tried egg whites nor applesauce/puree. I don't mind the calories nor fat that eggs or oil gives me in the small amount that this recipe uses. And yes, I am at altitude. As for the sugar free chocolate chips, I was lucky and happened upon them in Wegman's here in NOVA. Sometimes Wal-Mart carries them as well. Kinda pricey, but worth the investment.

    Good luck!
