CHEW THE RIGHT THING
BITE IT!
HG's Super-Duper Strawberry Shortcake
Short 'n Sweet!
Strawberries + pound cake + ice cream = good times. Add a little whipped
cream and strawberry sauce, and you have a head-explodingly-good
dessert. Check it out (and no, your cranium will not actually blow up... so no
worries, people).
Ingredients:
1 shortcake dessert shell (like a Hostess Shortcake Dessert Cup)
1/3 cup sliced strawberries
1/3 cup Breyers Double Churn Free fat-free ice cream, Creamy Vanilla
2 tbsp. Fat Free Reddi-wip
1 tbsp. Smucker's Sugar Free Strawberry Preserves
Directions:
Mix the preserves with 1/2 tbsp. of hot water to make a strawberry sauce,
and then set aside. Place about one-third of the sliced strawberries in the
center of the shortcake. Top with the ice cream. Then, place another third of
the strawberries on top of the ice cream (or if you want to be all fancy, press
them into the ice cream). Drizzle the strawberry syrup over the top. Then
squirt your dessert with the Reddi-wip, and top with the remaining
strawberries (again, feel free to be fancy and place them prettily around the
whipped topping). Enjoy! MAKES 1 SERVING

FIGHT IT!
Strawberry Shortcake w/ Ice Cream, Average
Berry Disappointing
Despite its adorable name and the fact that it's made with actual fruit,
strawberry shortcake is far from a picture-perfect dessert. It's pretty much a
slab of buttery cake or a doughy biscuit topped with sugary strawberries,
oodles of whipped cream, and usually some sort of strawberry syrup. And
there's often ice cream involved (AAHHHH!). A single serving of the stuff will
set you back an average of over 560 calories and 25 fat grams. Oy! You can
get the same berry-licious satisfaction from chewing on our super-easy
swap! So just grab a few ingredients and throw together HG's Super-Duper
Strawberry Shortcake. The only thing it's short on is fatty calories.
