2 sachets Hi Lites dairy fudge – 4 sins
8 good tablespoons granulated sweetener
1 tsp vanilla essence
_ tsp bicarbonate of soda
4-5 good teaspoons of vanilla yoghurt

hi thought i would add this one.
I think it is only about 1/2 sin per whole cake, on green. someone at my class last week bought one in as a taster but used almond extract and it was yum. Hard to believe it is made out of chick peas.

hi ladies. i didn't read all the pages but i read the first 7 and i have to say the chickpea/couscous cakes are not as low syn as you think they are. if you use them as a flour substitute they are not free anymore.
I've just made this and it is gorgeous
Mincemeat (the fruit one not the meat one) cous cous cake
4oz cous cous
3 eggs
3 tablespoons sweetener
2 level tablespoons mincemeat
juice from 1 lemon
Heat the oven to 180
soak the cous cous in boiling water (normally use double the height of cous cous) add the sweetener and lemon juice with the water, stir and wait for it to soak in.
Add the mincemeat
qhisk the eggs then add them too and mix well.
Pour into a greased loaf tin and bake for 40 mins
The whole cake is only 2 sins on a green day!!!
I'm having a go at this one It's in the oven now...mmmmmmmmmmm :fingerscrossed:
in your food optimising book it says "unless used as a substitute for flour, if so these foods have a syn value" or something like that
