"I had fun naming this scrumptious bread, thinking of how sailors shout with joy when they spot land. Your family won't need to hit the water to feel the excitement. Instead they might just spot this chocolatey bread cooling on the counter and shout, "Chips Ajoy"!"

1. Preheat oven to 375º F. Spray a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with butter-flavored cooking spray. In a large bowl, combine baking mix, dry pudding mix, dry milk powder, Sugar Twin, chocolate chips and walnuts. In a small bowl, combine eggs, yogurt, water, oil, and vanilla extract. Add the liquid mixture to the dry mixture. Mix gently just to combine. Evenly spread batter into prepared loaf pan. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Place loaf pan on a wire rack and let set for 10 minutes. Remove bread from pan and continue cooling on wire rack.

Cut into 12 slices.

Freezes well.

* You might want to try chocolate or almond extract in place of the vanilla extract and use fat-free vanilla flavored yogurt instead of the plain.
