52 Week Dessert Challenge, Week 3: Birthday Dessert
52 Week Dessert Challenge, Week 3: Birthday Dessert
Three of my kids, my brother, and my dad all have birthdays in January.
We all get together for a big January Birthdays celebration.
This week I sampled a few recipes for the party
which is a good thing because neither were well received!
Date-Nut Pudding Cake with Vanilla Sauce was the better of the two recipes.
I liked it but when dessert time on day two rolled around
my kids opted for cereal and my husband asked for no sauce.
Despite being a Cooking Light recipe and having 322 calories per serving
this recipes has 13 Weight Watchers Smart Points!
The other recipe I made was Chocolate Pudding Cake.
This is an older Cooking Light recipe from the January 2004 issue.
This recipe was EXTREMELY sweet.
It makes 8 servings and calls for 2 1/2 cups of sugar!
Each serving has 351 calories but since there is SO MUCH SUGAR
one piece is 19 Weight Watchers Smart Points!
Next week I am going to check on the Weight Watchers Smart Points value
before I decide what to make! It will be a lemon dessert
and my goal is to make something under 10 points.

Fiery Stuffed Poblanos
.
Very tasty but not that fiery!
This recipe is from the February/March Taste of Home issue.
5 Weight Watchers Smart Points per serving and the servings were huge.
The leftovers were even tastier!

My careful little cat always peeks around corners to make sure the coast is clear.

My daughter is quite the artist and loves to paint.
She says this isn't a self-portrait but it sure looks a lot like her!

52 Week Dessert Challenge, Week 2: Orange Dessert
We have a huge orange tree in our back yard that is filled
with big, sweet, ripe oranges that are just waiting to be used in a delicious dessert.
This week I made Orange Yogurt Cake (Bizcocho de Naranja)
from the July 2005 issue of Cooking Light.
This recipe has 240 calories and 9 Weight Watchers points per serving.

I also made some chocolate chips cookies for a friend
who is recovering at home after a hospital stay.
These are the best chocolate chip cookies ever!
I first discovered the recipe in the December 1998 issue
of Sunset Magazine and it has been my go-to recipe ever since!
