Okay, so I’ve been trying to lose a few pounds, and I’m all about finding yummy treats that won’t totally derail my progress. I heard about this angel food cake thing on Weight Watchers, and I was like, “Wait, cake that’s actually okay to eat?” I had to try it out.
Getting Started
First, I needed to figure out what I was actually doing. A quick search, I found so many recipes. Some are all about using a box mix, while the orthers are a bit complex . I mean, who has time for that? I wanted something super easy.
My Super Simple Approach
- Grab a Box: I went with a regular angel food cake mix from the grocery store. Nothing fancy, just the basic one.
- Skip the Extras: The box usually tells you to add oil or butter or whatever. Nope! I just ignored all of that.
- Water Only: all I added was the amount of water the box instructions. It felt weird, but I trusted the process(sort of).
- Mix it Up: I used the mixer until everything combined.
- Bake it : Then, I poured all the mixed food into the pan, and baked the cake in the oven according to the box’s instruction.
The Moment of Truth
I pulled it out of the oven, and honestly, it looked pretty good! It rose nicely, and it had that classic angel food cake texture. I let it cool completely before I even thought about cutting into it.
Figuring Out the Points
Okay, so here’s the important part – how many Weight Watchers points is this thing? I use my app to track and calculate it, and I was pretty shocked. A decent-sized slice was way less points than I expected! I think it was something like 1 or 2 points per serving, depending on how big I cut the slices. You can find the exact points on app, and calculate based on your own cake and serving size.
My advice, double-check with the app, because different brands and serving sizes might change things up.
The Verdict
This angel food cake hack is a total win! It’s easy, it satisfies my sweet tooth, and it doesn’t blow my points budget for the day. I’ve even tried it with a little bit of fruit and some sugar-free whipped topping – still low in points and totally delicious. If you’re on Weight Watchers and craving something sweet, you gotta try this!
