__________________________________________________________________________________
So here is a recipe of my families, I modified it to make it a little more healthy! Added a serving of fruit, and changed it from regular boxed cake to angel food cake because it is lower in calorie. If you need a sugar fix this is the way to go!
Jello Punctured Angel Food Cake
Ingredients:
One Box of Angel food cake (or favorite kind of cake, I chose angel because it is lower in calorie.)
One box of Sugar Free Jello (I like strawberry)
One Tub of light Whip Cream
One Small Carton of Strawberries
2 Tsp. of sugar
Directions:
Cook Angel Food Cake as directed on back of box. You can also make them in muffin tins if you so desire.
Once Cake has cooled completely, stab it all over with a fork, and by stab all over, I mean ALL OVER. Mix the Jello packet with 2 1/2 cups water instead of 4 like the box calls for. While it is still in liquid form pour over the angel food cake letting the liquid jello soak down through the cake. You wont use all of the jello but use quite a bit of it. Immediately put cake into the fridge for 2-3 hours.
While it is cooling wash and slice strawberries. In a blender, blend about 5 strawberries until they are the consistancy of a smoothie. Pour blended strawberries into a mixing bowl, add sugar to the blended strawberries and mix. Add the rest of the sliced strawberries to the blended ones and stir until mixed. Sit in fridge.
After 2-3 hours pull cake out of the fridge. Cut into 12 pieces top with strawberries and light whip cream. ENJOY!
Nutrition Information:
Good-
200 calories a slice
a whole serving of fruits
Bad-
23 grams of sugar.
But hey if you need a fix this is a good way to go

I make a similar recipe, but I mix the cool whip with the jello (once the jello is hot) and then pour that over the angel food cake. Slice the strawberries and place them on top, minus the sugar. It tastes delicious and I don't miss the extra sugar. Yummmo!0
