A Big Hit


I finally got around to making the Dark and Delicious Chocolate Velvet cake from the 2013 Milk Calendar. It was a big hit with us all. It's nutritious and contains one large beet and uses cocoa powder, all good stuff.  The recipe makes 8 servings at 281 calories per serving.  It's cake after all.  My picture is half a serving.

I've been learning that low fat food products are not necessarily better for you.  A lot of these products replace fat with sugar, for example in light peanut butter.  So you are better off buying real peanut butter and eating a couple of tablespoons of it.  It will make you feel more satisfied.  Did you know that?
