"Skinny" Funfetti cupcakes




Cupcakes:
1 box funfetti cake mix
1 12 oz. can Sprite Zero

Frosting:
1 8-ounce container Fat Free Cool Whip
1 1.5-ounce Fat Free Jell-O Instant Pudding
Sprinkles

Directions: Combine cake mix and Sprite Zero in large bowl and mix well. (Word to the wise: add the soda in slowly little by little as you’re mixing--it foams up). Pour into cupcake liners until about a 1/4 to 1/3 full. Bake for 20 minutes at 350 F.

Let Cool Whip soften by setting it on your countertop for about 20 – 30 minutes or in the fridge for about 4 hours. In a bowl, combine cool whip and pudding mix. (Note: you’re just using the powdered pudding mix, not actually making the pudding.) Mix until well combined and smooth. Frost cupcakes and drop a few colorful sprinkles on top.

Yields 24 cupcakes; Calories: 110 per cupcake


Variation::  Use Diet Cherry 7up or Diet Pomegranite...These cupcakes are only 90 calories without the frosting.
Now you can enjoy a cupcake without the guilt!
