24 wonderful little cupcakes! YES, you read that right. ONE cake mix + ONE 12 oz DIET soda= 24 YUMMY little cupcakes. No eggs, No oil, or No water...just a canned diet soda! :)You see, I am on Weight Watchers. I have always struggled with my weight. I am only 4'10" so 5 lbs on someone else looks like 15 lbs on me :o( I have said for the last several years that I am going to do something about it, I am going on a diet, blah blah blah. Well, I would lose 10 lbs or so and then gain it back. Lose 10, gain it back...so on and so forth. WELL, I am ready to lose 10, and then lose 10 more, and so on.... :o) I am determined! :o) I am excited! I am ready!
So I guess you can imagine my excitement today when I found out that I could make cupcakes and there are only 2 points in each one. In weight watchers, that is a BIG deal! I have been eating lots of fruit, veggies, etc, but sometimes you just need something sweet! I seriously didn't think these little jokers were going to be any good, but they were DELICIOUS! Wade actually thought I made them for him and the kids and that I was "cheating" on my diet when I had one tonight. ha!!!! Yes, they are that good! Even if you are not on WW, this is a "healthier cupcake"! :o)
I dusted a little powdered sugar over some for them. And actually, as little as I put, it is not even enough to make a point in WW! I don't think I will have any left by the time I get home from work tomorrow as Wade had THREE of them tonight! UGH! Wish I could eat like he does! ha!!!
I hear you can use a chocolate cake mix with a diet Dr. Pepper and those are quite yummy! Really just use your imagination. One cake mix and one diet 12 oz soda! The possibilities are endless! :o) This was the first one I tried tonight and I am impressed!
Here is your break down of this heavenly recipe...
Weight Watcher Cupcakes
1 cake mix (I used Lemon Supreme)
1 diet soda (I used diet Sprite)
Mix the two ingredients well and then fill 24 greased cupcake tins half full (I had just enough for 24). Bake in a preheated oven (350) for about 15 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. (I really didn't time it, but they were not in there long).
ENJOY!!!!
And, I will go ahead and give you a little sneak peak of what I am adding to my shop! More information on this later! :o)
And just for kicks.....Look what I caught on camera tonight! Avery falling off of the bar stool! Ha!
