I decided to go on Weight Watchers during the onset of COVID-19. I watched my points, did it all online because the workshops were closed. I got 10,000 plus steps in every day for 3 months and 18 days. I lost 20 pounds and love the crack cake! Yes, crack cake! I found this cake recipe and it is a WW recipe, but you get only 1/16 if a cake as a slice. Love it!!! Look it up on Google or Pinterest, bake it 40 minutes to an hour.

By the way, on WW Blue, each slice is Zero Points! So, I have black coffee and a slice of that cake in the morning for breakfast! 0 points and I am allowed 23 points a day.

Can you post the recipe? I don't belong to Pinterest and Google gives too many different options.

Congrats on your weight loss on Weight Watchers. Your post reminded me how successfully I lost pounds those 15 years ago when I joined.
My goal was 20 pounds and that is exactly what I lost and it was not difficult at all, as long as I stuck to the program, which I did.

Can you post a recipe.

By the way when I reached my goal weight loss, then I stopped the program. This is when I began to eat my old habits and gained back
the weight :(

I'd love the crackcake recipe though please ;)

DCrack Cake Recipe: 1 package of Moist Yellow ( or any flavor you choose), 1 small (3.4 oz) box instant vanilla pudding, 1/4 cup white sugar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 teaspoons cinnamon, 4 eggs, 3/4 cup water, 3/4 cup oil, 1/2 cup white wine (or any flavor-red wine would do for a red velvet). Glaze: 1/2 cup butter or 1 stick, 1 cup white sugar, 1/4 cup wine. Mix the cake and put in a greased bundt pan and bake at 350 degrees for 40-50 minutes. Mix the glaze, bring it to a boil until the sugar dissolves and pour on the cake after it comes out of the oven. Immediately. You can poke holes in the top of the cake first if you want. There you have it. You can also change the pudding to go along with the cake mix. You can use pumpkin pie spice pudding mix with spice cake mix and the like. Let it sit for an hour before turning the cake out of the bundt pan.

I posted in response to someone on here. So happy to hear of your victory. I liked the cake so much, plus it was 0 points, I was having 3 slices a day! I had to knock it down to once a day and get back on the diet. lol

Thanks, sounds good. I don't understand how using a cake mix and white sugar and oil can be zero points, though. I'll run it through the recipe builder. Congrats on your weight loss; that's great!

Also, for some of who can't eat it all before it goes bad, you can freeze it. I cut it into four sections, wrap it in Saran Wrap, then put it inside an air tight baggie. When getting it out to thaw, set it out for about an hour, take it out of the baggie, then unwrap the Saran Wrap and put it in a container (cake pan with lid) or something and keep in refrigerator. Such a moist cake in a warm house or weather might cause it to mold before you can enjoy it. A hint left to me on the recipe.
 
So technically you could each crack cake all day 🤔🥳LoL
Well, I was on WW Blue, allowed 23 points a day. Zero points meant I could start off my day with a slice of cake and cup of black coffee, have it for dessert for lunch, and dessert for supper! Well, losing weight stalled. Didn't gain weight, just didn't lose any more. So, I am back to eating right, dessert crack cake once a day (preferrably after supper) and I am back to dropping pounds. :D Plus, no one is helping me eat it so I have to freeze 3 sections of the cake while eating on one section for 4 days. ;)
 
Well, I just plugged those ingredients into the WW recipe builder and got 10 points per serving (12 servings per cake.)
I got this recipe from WW and I divide the cake into 4 sections, each section has 4 slices. Each slice is Zero points on WW Blue. WW says that 1/16 if cake is 0 points, and that is a pretty good slice.

Well, I don't either. In any event, I have 23-28 points to use in a day, I also walk 10,000+ steps a day. For every 3,000 steps you can give yourself 1 more point to use toward food. So, I use the 23 points to eat on for the day, and if I walk all those 10,000 steps, I have 3+5=8 more points to my good. Not bad, I would say. :D

I posted the recipe on here somewhere. I am on my 4th month and just 10 more pounds to go. I think I will go on the maintenance plan once I reach my goal weight.

You are doing great. I know all about WW; I have been on maintenance for a few years so when I feel my pants getting snug I just revert to "the program."

That cake is 10 points per slice per the WW recipe builder, so you are obviously walking off the calories. But to say it is "zero points" is not the case. Thanks for the recipe.

Do you mean that is a WW recipe from their website, or you got it from some other WW member? You can plug those ingredients into the recipe builder on the WW website and see for yourself; it is not zero points. It sounds yummy, though. :D

Even with Google I couldn't figure out what Crack Cake was. So it's kinda like Poke Cake (popular a few decades ago) where you poke holes in the cake and pour Jello on top while it's still liquid?

There is "The Sarcastic Blonde" recipe: 1 box Moist Yellow Cake Mix, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup white sugar, 1 box (3.4 0z) instant vanilla pudding mix, 2 teaspoons cinnamon, 4 eggs, 3/4 cup water, 3/4 cup oil, 1/2 cup white wine (any flavor cake mix, or wine will do). Glaze: 1 stick butter, 1 cup butter, 1/4 cup white sugar.
Mix the cake mixture, pour in a greased bundt cake pan and bake at 350 degrees for 40-50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. When you take the cake out of the oven, pour the glaze on it immediately. Let it sit for an hour to cool and soak up the glaze. Put the cake in the refrigerator in a cake container because with warm weather or temperature and the moisture in the cake could cause it to mold early. To freeze a portion of the cake, wrap in Saran Wrap and put in an air tight baggie. When you are thawing it out, put on the counter, in an hour take it out of the baggie, unwrap the cake and put in cake platter with lid and store in refrigerator. For the glaze, boil until the sugar is dissolved and you can poke holes in the cake with a toothpick and then pour all the mixture over the cake. When cooled, turn on to platter.
