There’s no butter in this cake, however, there IS a butter recipe cake mix used. It’s my version of an ooey gooey butter cake. I had to knock some of the cholesterol out of it. I am not disappointed at all with my results!

I'm an army brat with a Cajun mother and an Irish dad. I'm married to the love of my life, David, and we have 2 daughters and 2 grandchildren. I've been a barber for 40 years. Im an old fashioned, old school cook and my recipes are basic. I change them up all the time.Since finding out I’m diabetic I’ve had to rearrange old habits. Any recipe I have can be made the old fashioned way OR replaced with lower carb options. Just ask and I’ll tell you what has worked for me.I’m the self proclaimed queen of the leftover. I have issues with leftovers looking back at me with the same sappy look they had the day before. Can’t do it. My super power is turning what I find in my fridge into something I want to eat. I work so much better under pressure. I live for shortcuts and not having to run to the grocery every day. Work with what you have. Adapt and overcome. Also, the less dishes, bowls, and pots I hafta use, the better. Hope some of these recipes work out for ya!
