While it is nice to have nutritional facts, as was already said, you can tell by the ingredients listed if it is healthy enough for your liking. Because I have weight to lose, when I click on a recipe, I'm pretty sure I'll have to adjust it if I want to make it, so I think of ways I can alter the recipe to make it applicable to my eating plan. I always enjoy looking at the Pillsbury site to get ideas. Kudos to Pillsbury for always giving such great recipes!!!!!

People certainly are short-sighted. If you are health concious, you should be able to tell by looking at the recipe ingredients whether or not it is for you. All of us enjoy a treat once in a while. It's not like we are going to eat it 24/7. Kudos to slosh29 and Betty Edwards for their insight!

Why do people keep asking about nutritional facts, some who already know these recipes are not low-fat, low-calorie, low anything! Why can't they just go to another recipe site and leave the rest of us alone????

Even though this may not be on the healthy side. My family loves when I make this and I think it tastes wonderful!

I thought this turned out fine. My brother ate most of what was left. I must be in the minority..I dont go to Pillsubury and expect to find healthy recipes...There are sites out there for that kind of thing.Whether they list the values or not you can reasonably assume it will not be low cal or low fat.Also, biscuits of any type (whether it is refrigerated or the baking mix style they will not turn out like the sponge cake.You need to make cake for that.If you are looking for a spin on the traditional type of recipe,then this is a reasonable take on it.
