DIET COKE CAKE 2 pts per serving

QUANTITY/SERVINGS:

BAKE/COOK (time and temperature):

 

Date:

23 Nov 2002

Time:

17:59:01

INGREDIENTS:

1 box cake mix - any flavor 

1 can diet soda - any flavor

 

PREPARATION:

Mix the dry cake mix with 10-12 oz of diet soda. (Do not use the egg or oil listed on the box). Spray a 9 x 12 cake pan (or cupcake tin) with non-stick spray and bake according to package instructions.

 

SERVING SUGGESTIONS:

Variations I've seen: chocolate cake w/ diet coke yellow cake w/ diet lemon-lime use your imagination for the combinations! Oh the possibilities! Some have said an entire can of pop makes the cake TOO moist ... 10 oz. seems to be the least I've seen suggested. Experiment yourself to find the best amount for your taste. -- Tip: Make sure to let the cake cook completely before you try to cut it. Because you aren't adding eggs, the cake will be tender and can tear if you cut it while it's warm. Some people have started adding 2 egg whites to the mix. It doesn't raise the points any (less than 1 point) but they report that the cake is firmer and rises better. POINTS? You have to figure your points from the cake mix you use. Multiply the nutritional info on the box by the number of servings the box says you get (usually 12). Then divide by the actual number of pieces you cut or cupcakes you make. The points will vary widely depending on how much fat is in your cake mix. I made this cake with a Betty Crocker German Chocolate cake with 2.5 grams of fat per serving. It came to 4 points for 12 slices. That would have been 2 points per cupcake if I'd made 24.

BAKE/COOK (time and temperature):

 

Date:

23 Nov 2002

Time:

18:06:25

INGREDIENTS:

5 apples, peeled, cored and sliced I used Rome, but Jonathan, Macintosh or similar varieties would be delicious. 

1 tsp. cinnamon 

dash salt 

1 tsp. vanilla 

1/2 cup Splenda 

1/4 cup Sugar Free maple syrup sweetened with Splenda 

1 Tbls. flour 

 

Topping: 

In a bowl mix together well: 

3/4 cup old fashioned oats 

2 Tbls. flour 

1 Tbls. light ICBINB or any other light margarine (not the spray) 

dash of cinnamon 

1 Tbls. sugar free maple syrup sweetened with Splenda 

2 Tbls. Splenda

 

PREPARATION:

Mix above ingredients well and put in a Pam sprayed 9" square pan or dish

 

 Topping: 

Sprinkle the topping evenly over the apples 

bake at 350 for about 35-40 min.

 

SERVING SUGGESTIONS:

The fruit in this recipe could be changed to peaches, cherries, blueberries, whatever you want, just use 5 points worth of fruit. I am not sure I would use the maple syrup in the other fruits, but would use it in the topping. I would go ahead and use the cinnamon in the peaches, but not in the other fruits mentioned...maybe use some almond extract in the cherries. 12 pts. for the entire recipe I love apple crisp and wanted to get a rich flavor and still keep it point friendly...here is the result. The apple crisp is fantastic and I will play around with the other fruits later. Hope you like it...Fran
