    This is my all time favorite recipe ever! It's so simple to make, it comes out so creamy and soft everytime, and there are so many different variations you can make of it!

    Skinny Mini Cupcakes

    Yield: 48 cupcakes

    Ingredients

    For Cupcakes:
    ½ box cake mix (dry mix only)
    2 egg whites
    ½ cup water
    1 6 ounce container yogurt the same flavor as the cake mix
    1 tsp vanilla

    Instructions
    1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
    2. Using cupcake liners, line two mini muffin pans with cupcake liners and set aside.
    3. In a stand up mixer or using a hand mixer, mix dry cake mix, vanilla, egg whites, yogurt, and water until well mixed. Mix around 2-3 minutes.
    4. Using a spoon, evenly fill cupcake liners with cake batter.
    5. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until toothpick inserted in the center of cupcake comes out clean.


    and thats it! No joke! That's all! I got this recipe from this link "http://www.skinnymom.com/2013/04/15/skinny-mini-red-velvet-cupcakes" but its just so free to alter!

    When I first tried it, I made the red velvet cupcakes as the recipe says and for one cupcake it was 26 Calories, 4 Carbs, 1 Fat, 1 Protein, 3 Sugar, 1 Calcium.... YES ONLY 26 CALORIES!

    I got so excited I couldn't believe it! The yogurt gave it a bright red color and it was so soft and creamy! Not only is it healthy it was the best red velvet anything I've ever had!!!!

    So it got me thinking, what if I could make other type of cupcakes with this? And right away I had to try another recipe!

    Next I made vanilla cupcakes (using Pillsbury Traditional Yellow Cake Mix and Dannon Light & Fit Vanilla yogurt) and they had the same creamy consistency! They were amazing! and guess what! These ones were only 19 calories! (19 Calories, 4 Carbs, 0 Fat, 1 Protein, 2 Sugar, 1 Calcium)

    I can't wait to try out this recipe with more flavors, like lemon, orange, or banana! My next adventure will probably be strawberry! I also wanna try chocolate cake mix with cherry yogurt to see if it tastes like cherries and chocolate (that's my favorite flavor anything)

    That's it for now, but seriously you NEED to try this out. K bye! (:

    Thanks for sharing. I will try this. :flowerforyou:

    I have made these before and they are perfect snacks when you want something small and sweet. I freeze them and pull them out as needed--that way, they are not laying around and available :)

    Is it life changing?

    I actually think these just might be. Just from reading the recipe alone...yogurt for moistness, real egg whites for rise, no fake stuff, fast baking for convenience, two bite cupcake size for portion control, frosting idea in link with 100 cals for two thus fitting my "snack" cal allotment, flavor variety for repeatability.....

    10/10 would bang! 600-00846154w.jpg

    I'll report back after trying them in a couple weeks. I am currently busy doing stacked regular sized cupcake trials for an upcoming party. Got no time for this one yet, but I'll get to it. My baker's brain is dying of curiosity.
