Okay, I must share this for any dieter out there.
1 Duncan Hines devil's food cake mix
1 can applesauce (15.5 ounces, you can find at walmart)
Mix them together, pour into cupcake pan, and bake at 350 for about 20 minutes. Do not overbake, check frequently.
These are delicious. They have no 'diet' taste. No yucky aftertaste. Just gooey chocolate wonderful tastiness.
In order to keep myself from eating the whole pan, I put them in individual sandwich bags, pile them in a large freezer bag, and then freeze them. Every night I take ONE out to thaw overnight so I have a treat the next day. It works really well!
I added the calories in the mix and applesauce and it is about 180 calories per cupcake. (yields 13) Not awful, especially compaired to a regular cupcake's 280 calories!!!

That is genious! Such restraint you have...
YUM! Do those calories include delicious frosting? ;)
Good job with the one and day....that would be my downfall. :)
That sounds great. I'm not too sure if I can find applesauce down here though...I will have to make a huge effort to search for it! Thanks for sharing!
Yum. You can definitely try a can of pumpkin mixed with a cake mix too if you can't find applesauce! It makes some moist cookies or cupcakes and gives you some good vitamins! Good luck on that diet~
Oh hi Joy, that was me, Sarah P!
Not that you need to go for the lo-cal version of anything, but these do look really good. I have used applesauce as a substitute for oil in muffins and pancakes as well-it totally works!
