Splenda was my go to choice in past years for beverages and food. Only recently about two months ago I just gave it up. I switched to black coffee and unsweet teas and do not add it to my foods. For me this is huge. 

Sounds so delicious!  

@Samantharox1 - I did try to stop, but since I don't smoke, drink, ect. This is my ONLY drug :) 

@CrashtestDawnie - It-is! :) 

I understand completely, I don't smoke and very rarely do I have an adult beverage, so if I stop at Dubkin Dougnuts I order a large Carmel ice coffee with cream and sugar mmmm my crack lol 

@Samantharox1 - If I remove the Splenda in my life I will replace it with more carbs :( I wish I could just drink te protein powder without the Splenda but it makes my 90% 'less happy' rather than say only 20% 

Have you tried the Quest protein shakes? The are yummy. My favorite is the cinnamon bun and peanut butter. I dont think it could be any sweeter. My niece challenged me to put spinach in it. I added a cup of raw spinach today and it did not change the taste AT ALL- just changed the color. Was totally not going to try but decided I was up for the challenge. I had to be on liquids for 3 weeks so the Quest shakes saved my life. 

@catherineelizabeth2 - It is Quest Protein Shake *powder* that I am using. Is that what you mean? Do they have it pre-mixed? 

How much of the whipping cream and how many Splenda packets?  

@Jessesgirl0108 - About 2-4 tbsp. Heavy Whipping Cream and "Splenda to taste". I use WAY too much Splenda. No way I would recommend someone use as much as I do, and MOST people don't need-any-Splenda-at-all :) *I* have a 'sweet tooth problem'. If you are 'normal' just follow the recipe here: https://bit.ly/2O7kULc
