I use different sweeteners [...]

During my cooking experiments, I've found that the simplest recipes are often the hardest ones to perfect. The two recipes I had the hardest time with were berry muffins and chocolate chip cookies.

Date Caramel Apples

I came up with this genius idea last night while rummaging through my fridge, trying to find a healthy snack to munch on.
