Hi all,

I have a major sweet tooth so it's important for me to have low-point sweet snacks available, particularly in the evening after dinner. Here is a cake recipe I love and a 1-point per brownie muffin recipe that works very well for me.

Diet Cola Cake
Estimated POINTS® value per serving 3

Ingredients
1 Box Cake Mix (it calls for Butter recipe but I use any mix and it still turns out)2 egg whites1 12oz. can of diet soda

Instructions
Mix above ingredients and follow the baking instructions on the box.

Special Notes
I've noticed the baking time is not quite as long as on the box, maybe 5 minutes shorter. Also, get creative with the combination of cake mix and soda flavors.

Brownie Recipe
1 pkg low-fat brownie mix (I typically use Betty Crocker)
2 C all-bran cereal
2 1/2 C water
1 Tbsp. Baking Powder
Splash of Vanilla

1. Preheat oven to temperature listed on brownie mix box.
2. Coat regular muffin pan with cooking spray.
3. In large bowl mix cereal and water until blended and let sit for 20 minutes Gently add brownie mix, baking powder, and vanilla. (You can experiment with adds like coconut or nuts but be sure to account for the points).
4. Evenly scoop mixture into each muffin pan and bake according to the required time listed on brownie mix box.

Makes 24 muffins
One brownie = 1 point

Enjoy!!
