Red Velvlet Cupcakes

Some people might think that desserts are unhealthy, but there are recipes for your favorite desserts that can take the unhealthy ingredients out and replace them with healthy ingredients. For Example, many people like to eat cupcakes and you think that they make you fat or that they are unhealthy but I’m going to show you the recipes for the unhealthy and healthy.

UNHEALTHY RED VEVLET CUPCAKE RECIPIE:
• 2 1/2  cups all purpose flour
• 2 cups sugar
• 1/2 cup baking cocoa (powdered)
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 2 sticks butter at room temperature
• 5 large eggs
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 teaspoon red food coloring

HEALTHY RED VEVLET CUPCAKE RECIPIE:
·         1 1/2 cup all purpose flour
·         1/2 tsp salt
·         2 tbsp dark cocoa powder
·         1 cup light brown sugar
·         1/4 cup butter
·         1 egg
·         2 tbsp water
·         1 tsp vanilla extract
·         1 tsp red food coloring
·         1/2 cup fat free milk
·         1 tsp white distilled vinegar
·         1 tsp baking soda

As you can see the ingredients are basically the same but instead of all the unhealthy fat things there are other ways to have a good dessert without worrying about gaining weight. Also it is more about portions; don’t over eat anything no matter what it is healthy or unhealthy, because having portion control is the main thing you need to have while eating.

Healthy and Happy Habits

  
If you want to drink juice always look at how much real fruit is in there. Eat a carrot so you can have 20/20 vision. If you like playing video games play one that moves you around like dance central.
Try to exercise after meal, because when you sit down and do nothing you gain weight. Always eat food moderation. The chicken leg shouldn’t be bigger than your fist. You should walk at least 15 minutes a day.  Do you like fruit snacks? get the ones made with real fruit. A kiwi a day keeps the hospital away.
