One of my readers recently wrote in asking if I had a good Weight Watchers Recipe for Coconut cake. So this weekend I did some research and found one and baked it immediately!! It was fantastic! This Weight Watchers Coconut Cake Recipe is still a rich and decadent dessert, but it has half the calories of a traditional coconut cake recipe. With just a few changes and substitutions, this fabulously delicious cake clocks in at just 4 Weight Watcher Points per slice, and is a very filling and satisfying dessert. It turned out so moist and creamy, and I absolutely fell in LOVE with this cake. If you want a good low calorie coconut cake recipe that will satisfy your sweet tooth but won’t use up all your Weight Watcher Points, give this one a try!

Weight Watchers Coconut Cake Recipe

Ingredients:
- 1 box cake mix – white preferably, but yellow is okay
- 1 can (12 oz.) Diet Sprite or Sprite Zero
- 1 cup fat free sour cream
- 1 cup shredded coconut
- 1 cup Splenda (granular)
- 1 1/2 cups Cool Whip Free

Directions:
It is best to begin to prepare this cake a few days before it is needed in order to allow time to refrigerate it between steps and before serving. Preheat oven to temperature specified on cake mix (350° or 375° depending no brand.) Grease & flour two round cake pans, or spray with Baker’s Secret or Pam for Baking. Mix cake mix and Sprite. (Do not add the other ingredients called for on the cake mix box.) You can add a teaspoon of coconut extract/flavoring if you have it on hand, but it is not necessary.
Pour into 2 prepared cake pans. Bake according to time on box (approx. 30 minutes) until lightly golden brown. While the cake bakes, prepare the filling. Mix 1 cup fat free sour cream and 1 cup Splenda with 1 cup coconut. Reserve a couple of tablespoons of coconut for garnish if you wish. Refrigerate the filling mixture. Cool the cake layers to room temperature and then refrigerate overnight if possible.
To construct the cake: Slice each layer in half horizontally to make 4 thin layers. Beat the filling mixture by hand to fluff a little and make less stiff. Place first layer on cake plate and top with approx. 1/4th of the filling mixture. Repeat this with each layer, so that you have 4 layers of cake with 3 layers of filling in between. Add the Cool Whip Free to the remaining 1/4th of the filling mixture. Mix by hand to make a fluffy frosting for the cake. Frost the top and sides of the cake with the mixture. Sprinkle the reserved coconut decoratively on the top of the cake. Refrigerate several hours or overnight if possible. Cut into 16 slices … this is a very rich dessert and a small piece is very satisfying. Store any left over cake in the refrigerator.

Red Velvet Cake and Red Velvet Cupcakes are my, hands down, absolute favorite desserts. I ADORE them. But the typical Red Velvet Cake Recipes are full of fat, calories and of course, extra Points. So when I came across this Weight Watchers Recipe for it, I was beyond excited and couldn’t wait to try it! When I read through the recipe, I was concerned about the icing because I REALLY like a thick buttercream, cream cheesy icing on my red velvet, but it turned out to taste pretty darn good! The icing is definitely lighter and fluffier than I’m used to, but it still tastes fantastic, and it’s a fair compromise for just 4 Weight Watchers Points per serving. This is the perfect low calorie dessert recipe to to take to any party or dinner and of course, it’s a great treat to make at home as well! When I made this recipe, I made 15 Red Velvet Cupcakes from the mix, so that I had my portions already divided out. If you love Red Velvet Cake, you’ve gotta give this Weight Watchers Red Velvet Cake Recipe a try and satisfy your sweet tooth without the guilt!

Weight Watchers White Bean Turkey Chili Recipe

Ingredients:
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 5 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 pound extra lean ground turkey (SHOULD BE ABOUT 120 CALORIES PER 4 OZ)
- 2 (4 ounce) cans canned green chile peppers, chopped
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Kosher salt to taste
- ground cayenne pepper to taste
- ground white pepper to taste
- 2 (15 ounce) cans cannellini beans
- 1/2 cup fat free Half & Half
- 2 – 3 cups fat free chicken broth (add as needed if chili is too thick)
- 1/2 cup reduced fat, shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 1/2 cup green onions

**OPTIONAL: Top with 1 tbsp of reduced fat sour cream (will not affect overall Points value)
*Note: The White Bean Chili in the picture shows some pomegranate seeds and celery on top of the sour cream for garnish, which is a nice idea! But I used the reduced fat cheese and green onions instead.

Directions:
In a large pot over medium heat, or in a crock pot on medium, combine the onion, garlic and ground turkey and saute for 10 minutes, or until turkey is well browned. Add the chile peppers, cumin, oregano, cinnamon, salt, cayenne pepper, and white pepper to taste and saute for 5 more minutes.
Add one can of the beans and the chicken broth to the pot. Take the second can of beans and puree them in a blender or food processor. Add this to the pot along with the Half and Half. Stir well and simmer for 10 minutes. If you are using this as a crock pot recipe, let simmer on low heat for about 2-4 hrs. Top each serving with 1/8 cup of reduced fat shredded Monterey Jack cheese, green onions, and 1 tbsp of reduced fat sour cream (optional). Recipe makes 4 HUGE servings.
