Skinny Cake Batter Dip

Cake batter dip? Yes, please! For the past month I have been seeing recipes on Pinterest for making healthier cake batter ice cream, cupcakes, & dips and it sparked my interest. You mean I can still enjoy the sweet taste of cake, but without the guilt? Sign me up. It's the perfect fun snack for kids and adults.
   
This dip is about 106 calories per 1/4 cup, which would be about 4 points on the Weight Watchers program. Skinny cake batter dip makes for a nice summer treat; it's light, colorful, has a little bit of tang from the yogurt, and most importantly it's delicious! I am already looking forward to the change of season and making a batch using Autumn colors.
Hope you enjoy this treat, and that's what's on my table tonight!

Serves about 10
Total Time: 5-8 minutes

  • Sprinkles, for garnish (optional)

Directions: 
     1. Mix Greek yogurt, Cool Whip, and vanilla extract together in a bowl, gradually add in the cake mix and stir until smooth.
     2. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving, add additional sprinkles.
