Ya baby!! Give me some cake! So cake is one of my weaknesses – it’s like my kryptonite. The yummy smells, the delicious sweet taste that melts in your mouth and makes all your troubles go away –need I go on? I figured that when I started Weight Watchers that cake would be off limits. And before you say it – yes I know that on Weight Watchers you can eat whatever you want. But that is not entirely true – I mean let’s get real – if you only have 29 points and a piece of cake is 14 um that does not leave much left over for anything else if you plan to not starve the rest of the day. So again I say cake was basically off limits. Until I found a recipe online that is seriously rocking my world right now. I am not creative enough to make this up on my own but I’m sure glad that someone didJ It’s a called a 3 2 1 Cake. So now I can have my cake and eat it too - its only 2 points. And for someone like me that has to have a little something sweet after dinner this is perfect. Plus you can really get creative with the toppings. My husband hates anything that has the word diet it in or is a Weight Watcher recipe - he automatically decides that its gross. But he loves these little cakes as much as I do. So this recipe is hubs approved!
3 2 1 Cake
1 Angel Food cake mix (one of the mixes HAS to be angel food)
1 Any other flavor of cake mix that you want
Mix the two dry cake mixes together in a Ziploc or storage container. Do not add any other ingredients to the mixes. Once you are ready to make one of these little gems get out a small coffee mug or ramekin. Add 3 tablespoons of the dry mix to the cup add 2 tablespoons of water and stir. Microwave for 1 minute and viola a little cake all for you!
The one pictured below is a yellow cake with berries and fat free Cool Whip on top. The berries are zero points and so is the Cool Whip because I only used 2 tablespoons. Total yumminess.
Try it out!
LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!! But now I want cake. Thanks for the recipe.
