I was scratchin' my head today for a post topic, then I saw that Shannon has a theme for today's WFMW carnival. Five ingredients or less. I can do that!
This recipe is from one of my favorite websites, Hungry Girl. HG takes regular recipes and switches out ingredients so that they not only healthier, but have less calories, less fat, less sugar, etc, etc.
I like this recipe because it's one serving, it's quick, and it can calm a sweet tooth easily.
Peaches 'n Cream Microwave Cupcake
PER SERVING (entire recipe): 120 calories, 2g fat, 190mg sodium, 25g carbs, 1g fiber, 10g sugars, 1g protein -- POINTS® value 2*
Ingredients:
2 1/2 tbsp. Pillsbury Moist Supreme Reduced Sugar Cake Mix, Classic Yellow
4 tsp. Gerber Peaches (or another brand of pureed peaches, found in the baby food aisle)
2 tbsp. Fat Free Reddi-wip
Directions: In a small microwave-safe dish (like a ramekin or custard dish), combine cake mix and peaches. Gently stir un til completely blended. (Don't worry if it seems like a small amount. Your cake will puff up -- we promise!) Microwave for 1 minute, and then let sit in the microwave to set for a full 5 minutes. Once cool enough to handle, run a knife along the sides of the dish to release the cake and pop it onto a plate (or you could just leave it in the dish to be consumed!). Then top your cupcake off with the Reddi-wip, and enjoy! MAKES 1 SERVING
