Cho-Fetti

by Heather

Let me start by saying I apologize for the lack of mouth watering pictures in this post. Actually, you’re welcome. Otherwise you’d start drooling and want to dig into a big slice of cake in about 5 seconds.

There are no pretty pictures because I never intended to post this recipe. But then I went and Instagrammed it {is instagrammed a verb yet? It should be. I attribute Instagram to the reason why my phone dies religiously by 1pm every day.} And through Instagram {& Instagram via Twitter}, you all kindly asked demanded the recipe.

boxed cake mix with greek yogurt

Bam. That’s it.

I used Blood Orange flavored Chobani Greek yogurt with a box of patriotic-themed Funfetti my mom snagged for the husband. {He’s an independence day baby}. I hope it was good. It smelled good. But I couldn’t eat it. Baking a cake you can’t have {and traveling 6 hours with it in the car}? That’s love.

It’s kind of like my pumpkin spice cupcakes. So easy it’s ridiculous. But a handy trick to have in your back pocket. Easy & makes something indulgent just a bit healthier.

And that’s what matters right? Because if you’re going to eat 3 slices in one sitting, every bit counts.

I love making box cakes with CHO! Works with just about every boxed baked good: cake, brownies, cookies etc.
Very sweet of you to make cake especially if you couldn’t eat any!
