Those who know me well will say that I am not a snob--except for when it comes to icing. I want the real stuff! To me cakes are ruined with fake whippy icings made with shortening. Submitted by: CHEF_MEG

I found a banana cake recipe in a favorite book of mine but found it to be too many calories. I tweaked the recipe and cut half the fat, a third or so of the sugars and the family still loves it- even the teens.Submitted by: SALSAMAKER

This is a modified version of the popular Pumpkin Muffin recipe here on Spark People. I didn't like the spice cake. I use Carrot cake instead. Also, it was too dry, so I add applesauce and water. We also like cream cheese icing and use that on our muffins. We use a half container for a batch of 18 muffins.Submitted by: SASWOPE

This is not exactly a healthier version of icing but it is appropriate for decorating a very large birthday cake. This recipe will make about 9 cups or 72 2 tbs servings. It should be eaten in moderation and is actually ok if eaten in servings of two tablespoons which is average on a birthday cake. I first made swiss buttercream for the first time and discovered it was way toooo buttery for my tastebuds so I adapted it into my regular buttercream recipe and found it to be quite tasty.

My grandmother's recipe. She called it Wacky Cake. Some call it Kitty Litter Cake - since you make it all in the baking dish without a bowl. The technique of adding the wet ingredients to the dry via holes like a kitty might make lends to its name. Submitted by: CASAGRANDMA
