Answer 1

I love cupcakes, but always try to make them a little bit healthier.  Here's one of my favorite low fat recipes I made recently:

Mandarin Orange Cupcakes

Yellow Cake Mix

1 can Mandarin Oranges (with juice)

2 egg whites

1/4 cup water (or as needed)

Mix all together & bake per cupcake directions on the box.  

Frosting:

Fat Free Cool Whip

Sugar Free Instant Vanilla Pudding

Add the pudding a little at a time & add some skim milk if it needs thinning.

Delicious!

Answer 3

Hello Lyssa,

Do you like chocolate or candies? If you have butter or margarine, you can make almost anything on my website. There are lots of recipes there for cookies, cakes, candies, and more.

Good luck! I hope you find something sweet to make!
