Weight Watchers - Smart Ones Strawberry Shortcake —

Smart Ones makes delicous healthy desserts that are low in calories and easy to make. I have always loved Strawberry Shortcake, so I couldn't wait to try this dessert. This is a tasty treat with only about 170 calories per serving. The dessert is perfectly portioned to serve one, however it is a pretty small serving so you will be tempted to add an ice cream topping to make it more filling. Each serving has 6 grams of fat, so you need to restrain from eating both desserts that come in the package. This dessert is easy to make because you can thaw it in seconds in your microwave. The treat starts with a yellow sponge cake base. I liked the cake because it tasted soft and moist and didn't get mushy or chewy as the dessert melted. The cake is then topped with sweet strawberries which taste fresh in their own syrup. It is then topped with a small spoonful of whipped cream which melts nicely into the strawberries to make a creamy dessert. I like the taste of this dessert, but for the amount of fat and calories you could just top spongecake with strawberries and get the same taste and calories. But if you are looking for convenience, this is a great tasting and quick dessert.
