I'm a little embarrassed to show pictures of this cake. However, we do say that we are sharing our "disasters and delights," so I will. This cake turned into a little of a mixture of a disaster and delight. It tasted awesome, it just looked pretty rough.
I used vanilla yogurt instead of oil in the cake and baked it according to the package directions.
For the icing I combined a few recipes I found. It looks lumpy because I used fat free cream cheese... if you can get past the texture of the lumps (that are IMPOSSIBLE to get rid of) it ended up tasting pretty good.
Icing ingredients:
- 8oz Cream Cheese (don't use fat free)
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 stick of butter
- 1/4 cup of vanilla yogurt
Even though the icing was lumpy, it was very tasty. I think I'll make it again with Neufchatel cheese instead and see how that works.
E: 7 (I tried everything to get the lumps out, I even heated the mixture.)
A: 8
T: 8
HH: 9 (He loved the taste.)
Yeah, I tried to used fat free cream cheese for something the other day and it just doesn't work! This looks good...love using yogurt as a substitute for sour cream and other fats.
