recipe points
 
The No Pudge Brownies makes 15 servings at 2 pts each. The Angel Food Cake with a 20 oz can of pineapple serves 12 at 3 pts each. If you make 36 cup cakes that would be 1 pt each.

No Pudge Brownie Mix
 
The No Pudge Brownie is a mix that you add a carton of yogurt to and bake. If you have a Trader Joes in your area that is the best place to find them. They come in a small white bag with a picture of a pig on the front. www.nopudge.com

No Pudge Brownies have recently changed their package style. They now come in a box (pink, with that sweet little pig and the yellow tape measure around her waist). The brownies are 2 points each when cut into 16 squares (4 x 4, in an 8 inch pan) and can be purchased also at Bed Bath and Beyond, believe it or not. Angel food cakes vary in points, but not by much. Calculate how many points for the whole batch and then cut it into portions accordingly. You can also keep the points down by adding lemon extract, almond extract, or 2 tbs. of cocoa powder, and leaving out the pineapple... Additionally, you can add a well mashed banana (very nice) to the No Pudge and the points it adds are insignificant... Enjoy! :-)

Pillsbury, BC and Duncan Hines 1 step angelfood cake mixes are all the same.....
 
as is my Fry's/Kroger brand.

Adding 20-ounce crushed pineapple in own juice or 1 can light cherry pie filling or light strawberry pie filling or 1 4-serving box of any flavor sugar free jello yields 12 servings at 3 points.

imaleader 05-31-2001 12:34 PM

Uh Oh: Can of worms here
 
Kelly, why would sugar free jello add points? zero times zero... is still zero, right?

Kelly_S 05-31-2001 01:15 PM

I have everything entered in Mastercook....
 
and with the total calories/fat/fiber it comes out to 3 points a serving...

and 4 zero servings of sugar-free jello isn't zero points remember then it would add points ;)

Did you guys say to put pineapple inside of an angel food cake? How does this work? Thanks

Pineapple Angel Food Cake
 
this is a delicious recipe. What you do is, buy the angel cake mix, and a 20 ounce can of CRUSHED pineapple in its own juice.
1. Drain all the liquid from the can of pine. AND USE IT as the moisture for the cake, instead of the water the box calls for.

2. Mix according to package directions.
3. Gently FOLD in the crushed pineapple, making as even a mixture as you can (the fruit is heavy and wants to sink to the bottom. If you are an accomplished "folder" you will successfully incorporate the fruit nicely into the mixture.

4. Put in an UNGREASED angel cake pan (tube pan w/ removable center if you have it, or a plain tube pan will be fine.)

5. Bake according to directions. Turn upside down to cool completely (or it will sink) and you have a great desssert.

Kelly_S 05-31-2001 06:11 PM

This is an even easier way to do it
 
20 ounce can of pineapple in own juice
1 1-step angelfood cake mix

mix together don't add any extra water.

Put in ungreased tube pan or 9 x 13 pan.

Bake according to directions on the box.

OR as said before mix with 1 can of light cherry or strawberry pie filling

OR add 1 4-serving box of any flavor sugarfree jello and mix with the amount of water on the box

Pineapple Angel Food Cake Pan
 
If you bake your pineapple angel food cake an in a tube pan, I don't recommend turning the pan upside down to cool. And don't hang it on a bottle to cool. I did the bottle cooling like always and when I returned to the kitchen I had cake all over the counter. The pineapple was too heavy. The sides were nicely stick to the pan. What a mess. It is much better to use a 9 x 13 pan. It may work for some, but don't say I didn't warn ya.

Pineapple Angel Food Cake
 
Hmmmmm. I do it in a tube pan exclusively and never have that problem. It might be because I incorporate the pineapple SEPARATELY ( I first use the liquid, and beat the batter, THEN fold in the pineapple to make it a homogenous mixture. This works every time. I used to be a pastry chef... try it. It's never been a problem. ) :-D

Kelly_S 06-05-2001 12:37 PM

That's usually a sign that you didn't bake it long enough. I've never ever had that problem at all..... ;)

n1hotredhead 06-05-2001 01:04 PM

hey lighter i'm with you
 
hi lighter, i think the other pan is the right one to use thats what the ww leaders say to use but to each is own what ever works for you or all our ww buddies have a good day:dizzy: :D tina

imaleader 06-05-2001 01:23 PM

brown and cracked
 
Another key to a successful angel cake is that the top should be well browned and cracked.... it should pull away from the sides of the pan before you remove it from the oven.

n1hotredhead 06-06-2001 09:46 AM

brown and cracked response
 
imleader yes that is another way and i love it that way that is my favorite part have a good day:D :wave:
