Vanilla CAKE

June 01, 2015

Hey Loves!

I'm back again with another labour of love! For my Mister's birthday I wanted to bake him his FAVOURITE cake, Strawberry Short Cake. As a surprise I wanted to make him a healthy rendition.

I did some research online and looked at a couple of vanilla cake recipes. Once I got a feel for the ingredients I was able to make some substitutions and came up with my own healthy rendition.

On my first attempt at baking the cake base I got a thumbs up from my mother, which is rare mind you.To this day she still raves about it. I still felt the recipe needed some tweaking. I wanted it to be a bit more moist.

I was quite pleased with how it turned out after making some adjustments!

My boyfriend was AMAZED and blown away.

I will share both recipes below. Feel free to try them both out. I would love to get some feed back from you guys. I might just omit the oatmeal flour and use 2 cups of coconut flour on my next attempt. Also I would love to try and use coconut butter, just have to try and get my hands on some!

I hope you guys like this recipe. If you want to make A strawberry short cake all you've got to do is get some low fat whipped cream and strawberries for your filling. For the icing I mixed together 1 package of light cream cheese and light whipped cream. I added the whipped cream until I got the consistency I wanted for my frosting.

Now please keep in mind, the vanilla cake is a healthy rendition to your traditional vanilla cake BUT in no way shape or form is my cream cheese icing and layers of whipped cream "healthy". Lol I will work on creams and icing in the future!

Enjoy My Loves
