DESERTS:
Red velvet cake:
Red velvet cake is a classic American dessert. To help make
this traditional meal-ender a little friendlier to your waistline, give the
following changes to your favorite red velvet cake batter a try:
Replace the eggs
with egg substitute.
- Use low- or fat-free
buttermilk.
- Switch half the sugar with a
sugar substitute blend.
- Top the cupcakes with
powdered sugar instead of frosting.
- Bake in mini muffin pans.
Cookies, pies and cakes are delicious, but
everyone knows that cupcakes are the perfect party treat. Not too big and not
too small, cupcakes are a delightfully versatile dessert that can be served on
paper plates at a picnic or presented in an elegant, statuesque tower at a wedding
or other formal celebration. They also run the gamut in flavor, ranging from
plain yellow with chocolate
frosting to key lime with meringue. No matter what size, taste or toppings you
favor, there's a cupcake recipe (or 20) bound to satisfy every taste bud.
Before tying on the apron, however, take note of the 10 tips we've put together
to help aspiring chefs produce perfect cupcakes.
