Tom's birthday was a couple of days ago and I had to figure out how to make a low calorie cake for him. After all , birthdays deserve cakes. I wasn't sure what he'ld like so I made two. The first was a simple angel food cake. I bought an angel food cake at the local bakery. ( about 160 calories a slice). I covered the cake with sugar free cool whip ( 20 cal. for 2 tbsp.) and covered with sliced strawberries. Light and delicious.
Jello Cake
For this cake I bought a regular white cake mix. Instead of oil I added about 1/2 cup plain yogurt. I also used egg whites instead of while egg (if it calls for 3 eggs use 4 egg whites). I caked as directed. After the cake was done I removed from oven and poked holes all over the top of the cake with a large fork. I then mixed a large box of sugar free jello. I then poured the jello slowly over the cake . Place the cake in the oven for about 4 hours. Add sugar free cool whip if you like. Even with the cool whip this is about 150 cal. per serving.
