  • I found a great recipe for a low fat "muffin"- I think it could also pass for cupcakes-lol. I have switched to using powdered no-fat milk so I can have several "mixes" made ahead in the cupboard- all I have to add is the yougurt, vanilla, and water- much less mess then getting all the ingrediants out at once and much cheaper then the premade mixes and you you what all the ingrediants are. (HINT: I use 1/4 cup dry powder milk- to make it easier to disolve in the mix, I put it through the food processor to make it finer- I usually do several mixes up at a time, so I use my digital scale to measure to equal the 1/4 cup ( 1/2 oz))

    Here is the recipe (I think it is origianly from Hersey's, but I have seen variations posted on a lot of sites)

    Chocolate Muffins

    1-1/2 cups flour
    3/4 cup sugar
    1/4 cup cocoa
    2 tsp. baking powder
    1 tsp. baking soda
    1/2 tsp. salt
    2/3 cup nonfat unsweetened yogurt
    2/3 cup skim milk (or 1/4 cup fat free powder milk + 2/3 cup water)
    1/2 tsp. vanilla


    Mix dry ingredients. Stir in yogurt, milk and vanilla. Mix just until combined and moistened. Divide batter evenly in 12 lined muffin cups.

    Bake at 400º for 15-20 min.

    SERVINGS: 12
    EACH MUFFIN: 110 calories
    0 fat
    less then 1 gram of fiber
    2 pts each!

    VARIATION: FAT FREE CHEWY CHOCOLATE BROWNIES: I took one of my dry mixes (all the dry ingrediants plus 1/4 cup fat free powdered milk) and added one cup of fat free plain yogurt and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla. Mix and spread into a 8"x8" pan that has been sprayed with Pam type spray. Bake at 350 for 16-22 minutes. Cut into 16 2"x2" squares- 0 fat, less then 1 gram fiber, 85 calories per brownie: 1.5 points a piece!

    You could add a scoop of fat free/sugar free frozen yogurt for a great 3 point dessert!

    I haven't tried the recipe with Splenda yet- it would make the Muffins 62 calories, and the Brownies 46 calories- if any one tries this subsitution, let me know how it works.

    Thanks~

  • Don't remember what thread I was reading last week aboout mixing Swiss Miss into Cool Whip, but I did this over the weekend for my sister's birthday and it made great icing for am Angel Food Cake.

    I mixed:
    2 pkgs Diet Swiss Miss Hot Chocolate
    1 tub FF Cool Whip, thawed

    It made a very thick layer fluffy icing for a store bought Angel Food Cake and left-over cake kept in refrigerator overnight just fine.
    Sorry I didn't keep the points info, but I'm sure someone will post.
  • One of the problems I've always found with calorie-reduced chocolate cake is that it, frankly, doesn't take like chocolate cake. You know, that intensely chocolate, gooey stuff you want to lick off your fingers because its yummy chocolate. This recipe does the trick. It doesn't give you a large portion but it's worth every point. I make it for crowds so leftovers won't tempt me.

    whisking vigorously. Spread over cooled cake.


    - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

    NOTES : This makes scant icing. It's enough to ice (barely) one layer
    cake.

    Since there is so little, and the icing starts out a bit thin,
    the best way to ice the cake is to put a tin layer everywhere and
    then put it in the refrigerator until it thickens. Then fix the
    icing. If you want fancy swirls, you will need to make two recipes
    of this. As it is, it is fine for tasting gooey and very
    chocolate.

    For variety, substitute blackberry extract for the vanilla.

  • Chocolate pumpkin cake --mmmmmm!!
    Chocolate Pumpkin Cake

    1 devils food cake mix (be sure not to use pudding in the mix kind, these have extra calories!)
    2 egg whites
    1 can pumpkin
    1 can water

    Mix together and pour in bundt pan. Bake according to package directions for a bundt pan, you may need to add a few minutes. You want a toothpick to come out clean when you test it, or it will be too gooey. I top this with a little fat free cool whip when I serve it. Even my kids love it, and they don't notice the pumpkin!

    1/12th of the cake is 3pts per serving
  • Chocolate Mousse - 4 pts
    This is an easy, showy recipe that is low in fat and tastes great.

    Prep Time: 10 minutes, Chill 1 hour

    1 large pkg of FFSF Chocolate Pudding
    1 large container of nonfat Cool Whip, well chilled
    1 cup ice cold NF milk
    1/4 c. crushed chocolate cookies (I have used crushed cocoa Krispies for this in a pinch)
    4 Wine Goblets


    Prepare the pudding with an electric mixer using the one cup of milk to mix it. Beat at highest speed until well blended and starting to set up. It will be thick, like browny mix. Add 1/2 of the Cool Whip and fold in slowly, then increase mixer speed to highest speed and whip for about 2 minutes. Using remaining Cool Whip, make alternating layers of chocolate mix and Cool Whip, making sure there is a small Cool Whip dollop on the top. Chill for at least one hour. Just before serving, sprinkle a bit of the crushed cookie crumbs on top.

    According to my calculations, this is a 4 point dessert.
