Try this fresh take on cake! Instead of being loaded with fat and carbs, this sweet summer style cake is low on calories and big on taste.

Ingredients:
1 watermelon, 7-9 inch symmetrical diameter
8 oz. fat free frozen whipped topping
8 oz. nonfat lemon yogurt
Fresh fruit to decorate

Instructions:
Cut a 3-inch thick cross-section from the middle of the watermelon. Save the watermelon ends for another use. From the 3-inch thick round slice of watermelon, cut 4 slits through rind without cutting flesh. Cut between white rind portion and red flesh to remove rind. This is your "cake".

Pat watermelon cake dry with paper towel. Place watermelon cake on flat serving plate. Fold together whipped topping and yogurt. Frost the top and sides with whipped topping mixture. Decorate as desired with fresh fruit. Refrigerate until ready to serve. This can be stored several hours or overnight. Cut into 8 wedges to serve.

That isn't cake at all...it's watermelon smothered in yogurt frosting...

You want just cut something into a wedge, frost it and call it cake.

This is lame, really, you pay someone to write this?

if you're looking for an actual recipe for cake next time check the name and description of the recipe before wasting your time reading it, the wasting everyone else's time by writing an idiotic review for it.
