Because good food makes for a better mood!
But at 150 calories for the whole pint, I needed to taste it! I’ll give them props for trying. It was… interesting, but there is no way I could eat a whole pint of this stuff. Strawberry may have been the way to go; the only cookies here were the ones printed on the container. If you need ice cream, I highly recommend this:
Mmmminty, chocolatey, deliciousy. And that’s my scoop on ice cream.
I’m dying to try this! All reviews say it’s AMAZING and only 200 calories per serving!!
cake
1 1/4 cup oat flour
1 cup raw sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened, good quality cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup warm water
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
directions
Preheat oven to 350. Mix all ingredients in a bowl and stir/beat until combined. Pour the batter into a loaf pan coated with cooking spray. Bake 40 to 50 minutes, rotating the pan about halfway through the baking time. When a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean, it’s done. Let the cake cool completely, then top with Peanut Butter Glaze. Slice, serve, and enjoy!
