Skinny. Yeah you heard right! 🙂  This cake is made with healthier ingredients. And trust me when I tell you that it is absolutely incredible. In fact, I think this is better than the original!
When I am watching what I eat, I still need a dessert or chocolate fix. By substituting just a few ingredients it cuts the calories down significantly! This Texas Sheet Cake was better than any Texas sheet cake that I have had. The applesauce and greek yogurt made it so moist. It was perfect! You can definitely not even tell that this was made with healthier ingredients.
This cake was a great way to sneak in some yummy healthy ingredients without sacrificing on taste. You can still watch what you are eating and have your chocolate cake too with this recipe! 🙂
