Recipe Alert - Red Carpet Ready Cake - You can thank me later lol

So I came across this AWESOME recipe...and as fat kids, former fat kids and on our way to being former fat kids... you know there's one thing we all have in common... WE LOVE CAKE! lol

 

 

So I came across this awesome recipe for "Red Carpet Ready Cake" they're individual cakes that are SUPER band friendly and easy and the best part it's a 100 calorie snack ok 150 if you go crazy with the toppings.. but don't! If you're following weight watchers it's 3 points (I'm not but the creator of the recipe is soooo figured I'd add it in for those of you that are.)

 

Ok so here's what you'll need:

 

1 Box of Angel Food Cake Mix (I used Duncan Hines)

1 Box of Flavored Cake Mix (I used Pillsbury Strawberry because I know it's SUPER moist and it goes well)

Water

Optional: (but in my opinion SO necessary lol)

1 container of Cool Whip Free - yes FREE not lite, FREE.

Fruit to garnish.

 

 

Go home open both cake mixes and mix them together in a ziplock bag or container that you will hold the rest of the mixture in. Once it's mixed you're ready to go.

 

Now the cake part:

 

In a microwave safe container mix the following: (I used a big coffee/soup mug)

 

3 tablespoons of cake mix

2 tablespoons of water

1 minute in the microwave

 

Top with Cool Whip Free and Fruit (I use blueberries or sliced strawberries but just a couple)

 

Enjoy!

 

Save the rest of the mix for the next time you want a sweet treat that's both band and weight loss friendly, while being quick and delicious!

 

Like the title says.. You'll thank me later! lol

That sounds yummy. I will give it a try for sure. But only lost 12 lbs so far since my surgery and waiting for my first fill which I hope is this week. It was suppose to be last Thursday but the doctor decided NOT to come back to the office after doing surgeries at the hospital. I am in the process of changing doctors because my doctors office is closing which really sucks and the office staff is in the I don't care about you. It use to be fun going to the doctors and everyone telling you wow another pound that is great. Oh well, I am going to stay positive hope this weight comes off. Thank you for the receipt because I love cake and miss it but this will give me a little taste and not many calories.
