Chocolate Peppermint Poke Cake :: Made with Splenda

December 7, 2015 By: Briana Cartercomment


Splenda Poke Cake
The holiday season is upon us and you know what that means–lots and lots of sweets. From holiday baking to holiday get-togethers, it seems as though every time you turn around, you have another chance to ruin your efforts in weight management before you even start it.

Talk about depressing! Who wants to spend the holidays worrying about their weight? The holidays are supposed to be a time of fun and family–not weight loss. Thankfully, you don’t have to choose just one.

Don’t make choices today that you’re going to regret come New Year’s Resolution time in just a few short weeks, and don’t miss out on all of the holiday fun. Enjoy all of the sweetness of the holidays without the guilt by using Splenda for your holiday baking needs this year. A no-calorie sweetener derived from real sugar, Splenda offers all of the taste without all of the calories.

One of my favorite recipes to use Splenda in is this yummy Splenda Poke Cake. Not only is the chocolate and peppermint combination perfect for holiday get-togethers, but this fun Poke Cake is a great recipe to make with the kids while they’re home on Christmas break. Even kids as little as one or two can have a ball poking the cake over and over, while older kids can have fun reading the recipe,  measuring the ingredients and mixing them together.

Just because you’re on a diet this year–or plan to be in a few weeks–doesn’t mean that you have to miss out on all of the fun and sweetness the holidays have to offer–at least not this time. Let the New Year’s resolutions wait til January 1st. This yummy Splenda Poke Cake is one holiday dessert you will thoroughly enjoy–right down to the last scrumptious bit
