I have a real problem with putting 4 sticks(2 cups) of butter in them. Has anyone tried making them with less butter and perhaps some applesauce?http://www.finerkitchens.com/swap/forum1/54118_Check_this_one

I had the same problem Ang. I was already to make them this morning,
and I saw that it called for a pound of butter. That made me stop in my tracks. I wanted to make these for the kids, but I do not want them to have that much fat. I would love to hear someone who has reduced the fat in these.
I did the nutritional breakdown for these.
There were no unknown ingredients.
