Cinnamon Toast

By Dawn Hall, author of the Busy People’s Cookbook Series

This is just taking a simple recipe and making it more special for your celebration by creating fun shapes.
 
4 pieces light bread
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
4 teaspoons Splenda Granular
4 teaspoons light butter
 
In a small bowl combine the cinnamon and Splenda. Stir until well mixed.

Place the bread in a toaster and toast lightly.

Remove the bread from the toaster and place on a cutting board. Cut the toast with a large heart-shaped cookie cutter ( if desired) no bigger than the piece of bread and discard the scraps.

Spread the butter on the shaped toast.

Sprinkle 1 1/4 teaspoons of the cinnamon-Splenda mixture over each buttered toast.
 
Note: Place the cinnamon and Splenda mixture in a shaker, if you wish, to make it easier to sprinkle on the toast.
