I don't have an exact recipe, but I've made oatmeal cookies with splenda.

ChossidMom has a recipe for Low Fat Oatmeal Cookies made with Splenda. I also subsituted spelt flour for the white flour, and added choco chips. It was really good.

a bit off topic but I just discovered something called agave which is a natural sweetner with a low glycemic index (GI) which means it takes longer to be digested by the body and does not cause the high's and lows of sugar (approriate for diabetics) its delicious, its a syrup and its much better for you then sugar or any of these chemical based artificial sweetners. I made my challah with it this week and they came out delicious!

I have also used agave in my baking and its delicious. I don't use sugar substitutes when baking. I want healthy and sugar free not chemically laden. In my Challah I only use Honey. I will use naturally fruit juices, dried or fresh fruit and applesauce in baking . Obviously its not as sweet as sugar but you can always add more. I would post some of my recipes but I am not a cookbook kind of gal. I kinda throw things in and usually people really enjoy them.

I just want to add that if you just don't want the sugar because of the calories, there are plenty of splenda etc recipes to be found. Or you can use a regular recipe and just substitute it. Its really not a big deal.

I used to bake with maple syrup and mashed fruit (like bananas or applesauce). Now if I make something it is with juice concentrate. Wither way it was kind of wing it instead of recipes.
