Got this from something Prevention magazine sent me to get me to buy something! Since I used to be in Weight Watcher's I have learned a box of Angel Food Cake mix can be the basis for many delicious, and much lower calorie dessert treats. This goes well at the potlucks, even if they don't realize it is a reduced calorie treat. It does need to chill in the fridge for at least two hours before serving. Each slice is 261 calories.
