Chocolate Angel Food Cake
Those Flacons are going to need a BIG piece of this Chocolate Angel Food cake to drown their sorrows in huh? I literally know nothing about football. I mean I know how the game is played and everything, but I don’t know anything about the teams. From what I gathered as the pregame was turned on, the Patriots were favored. Seems that the Falcons are a young team and no one thought they could handle the pressure. Guess they were right as they squandered their huge lead away!
In my opinion it has a lot to do with momentum. I was in basketball throughout my middle school and high school years and I remember our coach always saying you guys, if you let the momentum swing you are pretty much screwed. I also remember thinking uh, huh whatever because I was fifteen and what did someone else know? Nothing.
I now realize that coach probably knew a lot more than I gave him credit for. As I watched the Super Bowl I quickly saw the Falcons get the momentum and it’s so hard to come back from that unless there is a major swing. And did you see that momentum swing? I couldn’t believe it! The Patriots recovered a huge deficit to come back and win!
Now let’s talk about that Super Bowl Food you are all enjoying! The hot item on the blog was this delicious Crack Dip. I have a confession. While you were all enjoying amazing food my family was not. I was scrounging to make some quesadillas quick for dinner. Ooops. Missed that one didn’t I? I was REALLY hoping I would be in the hospital meeting this baby. I should know better but that was my hope so I kind of skipped planning Super Bowl food.
The due date is still three days away but a girl can hope right? Poor Miss K is literally counting down the days until the arrival. I’m not sure how I’m going to explain to her that the baby isn’t coming if it’s over due. She thinks that due date is the DAY. Not with my history!
If my due date comes and goes you’ll find me with this entire Chocolate Angel Food Cake and Strawberry Sauce drowning my sorrows!
To make the Strawberry Sauce a little bit lighter I used Truvía® Spoonable. This is one of my favorite secret ingredients because it helps me reduce the calories in delicious recipes and not sacrifice the flavor. Truvia® sweetener is natural, great-tasting sweetness that was born from the leaves of the stevia plant. This Chocolate Angel Food Cake with Strawberry Sauce is the perfect treat for your Valentine. It’s easy and has so much flavor, yet is lighter than your average dessert!
