To make this recipe even healthier, you could substitute fat free cream cheese and artificial sweetner-- however, I can't verify how tasty those would be. I CAN tell you that these are absolutely delicious the way I baked them!!!

If you don't want to eat all of them right away, I would suggest cutting down the recipe and only making the amount you need, while saving the leftover dough in the fridge. I don't believe these would re-heat the same, and they are definitely better when fresh and hot out of the oven.



(Not as pretty, but still pretty tasty!)
