Fat free Caramel (Dulce de Leche)

Next time I’ll try to make the sweet condensed milk from scratch and using fat free milk.  For now, I’ll leave you with my treat!

I love to have it with toast in the morning, maybe add bananas to it, or just to eat a spoonful when I need my SWEET!

1.   If you have a pressure cooker:

Add enough watter to cover and a bit more the can, after the cooker starts making the noise of realizing vapor, leave it for 20 to 25min.   Allow cooling down before opening.

2.   If you have a crock pot:

Haven’t done it this way yet, but same procedure; cover can and cook for 8 hours.

3.   Regular cooking pot:

Cook cover in water (add more when it evaporates) for 3 hours.

Completely easy and delicious!

Move to a plastic container with lid and keep in the fridge for about 10days.

Apple upside down cake

I have reduced so much fat and  I can’t believe how moist it is! There’s so much flavor in this cake! You have to try this recipe! I brought it over to my friend’s house and they approved  it, Glynnis even asked me: Are you sure this is low fat?  NOT ONLY IN FAT, BUT IN SUGAR TOO, so here it is!

-          1 box of Sugar free yellow cake

-          ¾ cup of eggbeater (-15gr fat)

-          ¾ cup apple sauce

-          1 cup of watter

-          1tsp vanilla extract

-          1 tsp almond extract

-          1tsp cinnamon

-          ½ tsp cloves

-          ½ tsp nutmeg

-          1 apple peel and core

-          2 Tbsp. margarine

-          2 Tbsp. heavy cream

-          1/3  cup of brown sugar substitute (splenda kind)

In a mixing bowl add cake mix, and next 8 ingredients till nutmeg. In another container melt margarine and add cream and sugar.

Properly grease a cake pan (I used a Bund pan) and add some of the butter – cream mix to the pan, accommodate the apples over and finish with rest of the butter mix.

On top add the cake batter.

Bake for about 35min or until done (check by inserting a wooden toothpick in it and should come out clean)

Tres Leches Angel food Cake

You’ll thank me for this one!!

So there’s well known that Hispanics love Tres Leches Cake! Have you wonder why? Well because it’s good! So I’m trying to keep the flavor of it in a lighter version! And I loved it so I’m sharing it…

Ingredients:

-          ½ cup Fat free milk

-          1 can of Fat free evaporated milk

-          1 can of fat free condensed milk

-          2Tbsp of rum (optional)

-          1 Angel food cake or mini angel food cakes(get the premade from the grocery store and try to look for the fat free one).

-          Fresh berries: Blueberries, Raspberries and Strawberries

-          Fat free cool whip.

In a container, mix the 3 milks till well combined.  Add the rum if using it!

Is a separate plate with and edge that can hold liquid (like a pie dish) set your cake or mini cakes and poke holes in it with a fork.  Pour the milk mix over it making sure that liquid is getting in the cake. Pour on the sides and let rest in the fridge covering with plastic for at least 3 hours (but the longer the better) so the cake can absorb the milks.

Once ready to serve, decorate with some cool whip and sprinkle with berries! Enjoy ;-D
