Angel food
Frozen yoghurt pie.
116 per slice (recipe makes 6 slices)
Recipe:
12 strawberries
500 ml yoghurt
1 cup whipped cream light
9 ladyfingers
Lay ladyfingers on the bottom of a cake pan.
Add whipped cream to yogurt in medium bowl.
Stir with whisk until blended.
Add 6 strawberries, cut into small pieces, and mix it.
Spoon into the cake pan, on top of the ladyfingers.
Top with 6 slices strawberries.
Freeze 4 hours or until firm.
Remove from freezer 15 min. before serving.
If you make this with different yoghurt
(eg. stracciatella or something) you might end up with higher kcal.
Or if you decide to leave the strawberries out of the mix, you'll end up with less kcal per slice.
I put them in these silicone shapes, since they were the perfect size.
Basically, half of one of these mini-cakes is one 'slice'.
And they're not as small as you might expect.
Half of one of these cakes is about 2 1/2 - 3 regular cake slices.
So my opinion on this:
Difficulty:
★
Mix the yogurt and the cool whip, add some cut up strawberries (or blueberries, raspberries, chocolate chips, nuts or whatever you want) and throw it all into the shape.
Just remember to put the ladyfingers at the bottom of the shape first.
Then put it in the freezer and wait.
Easy as that.
Taste:

My dad said he missed the taste of sugar and fat.
Now I'm pretty sure he was just being a baby about it being 'diet food',
because if you can taste sugar and fat in YOGHURT, you've got a serious problem.
(besides, he did finish an ENTIRE cake, so 2 portions,
so I'm pretty sure he didn't hate it as much as he said he did)
I took a bite or two myself and actually, it's too fat for my tastes.
Probably because of the whipped cream.
It's just no good.
I liked it, but I could've done without the extra creamy taste, you know?
Besides, you actually do have to wait for it to thaw a bit before you can eat it
(since you can't slice it into portions and your spoon won't go through)
so you're basically just eating really cold yoghurt with strawberries and cookies.
And whipped cream, which feels like it doesn't belong there at all.
It's nice for when you want a new way of eating yoghurt,
but don't expect some amazing cake or pie,
because you'll basically be spooning it out of the cake pan anyway.
And leave out the whipped cream, because if it's not a pie,
you don't need extra cream to keep it upright.
Serving size:
★ ★ ★ ★
I haven't tried a whole portion, but I can already tell it's a pretty filling snack/dessert.
Basically 1 portion is a small bowl of yogurt, about 2-3 strawberries,
1,5 ladyfingers and a dot of cool whip.
Since the yogurt alone is usually enough for me to enjoy properly,
I'm pretty sure this is a decently filling cake.
